DEEPER DOWN THE HALLWAY
A LOVE LETTER TO BEING BETTER WITH YOU
A maze
A mansion
A labyrinth of sleeping ghosts
You walk with me by candlelight
taking my hand when I forget my way
We wander down hallways
Deeper into darkness than I’ve ever been alone
You bring me to sunshine
To fresh air and crystal dew drops
A grassy garden of us
Together
We walk in circles
I feel at ease
You cut bouquets from thorny rose bushes
You show me butterflies lay in wait
amid my wilderness of abandoned leaves
You are the most beautiful rose my garden has ever grown
Fragility glows within the shadows of your pain
I want to water you with safety
To bring you to light
I’ll nourish you and bloom with you
We’ll blossom into more
I want to grow with you
Turn our dirt into beautiful gold
