Such time has passed since our toes left the earth and we began our climb,
this ascent into a fervor we named "love".
I climbed blindly towards the sky.
Nights spent struggling against a new kind of gravity
left us sleepless and shaken,
but hand in hand we embraced the destruction.
We've come so far,
climbing vines that rip the earthen walls of this cavern
while pulling the softer walls of our hearts,
and though the stones loosen in our grip
and the grotto is streaked with the color of blood,
the dust burning my eyes does nothing to blur your image.
