I could never fall behind
Your spattered silence on the floor.
For hearts to sink or rise
Reasons must ignite.

Hot under the sun in July
Hands and arms intertwined
I came face to face with the sky.
I came face to face with your smile.

The only way was through you.
I saved each part for sweetness.
And sharing that laughter
Or any of the silence is life now.

A life I am sharing with yours,
The blue torch of your eyes melts my heart.
The whole northern landscape could never elude
Your heat and your fire, your flame.
