Of Swans and Ports

There were times, I know
You were ready to go
But you stayed
And my world spun on
Gave me air to breathe
A reason to still believe

Is there time, to go back and remember, who we are?

You came up today
In the light of my brain
Just as I thought to step away
For a second or two
I’d forgotten your face
Darkened by my anger
And my idiosyncratic ways
You brought me back to my senses

Is there time, to go back and remember, who we are?

There are words to say
Moments left to play
Out in the world
We brave the worst together
Even if it’s the worst in us both
We’ll remain right where we both need us
