You and I

 Your breath on my eyes, and heartbeat in my ears,
Your fingers in my hair bring happiness in my tears,
You became a part of me, banishing my fears.

We walk arm in arm, battling the waves,
Ready to take on the world, healing the other,
Becoming the rainbow and elixir of our world.

Some called it love, some called it lust,
The universe waited for us to flounder,
We just smiled, falling deeper and deeper.

Years went by, and seasons changed by,
Darkness hovered, threatening our existence,
Yet you and me managed to remain we.

Backs got bent, and sight got fuzzy,
Years were memory and steps treachery,
Still I'm your light, and you my life,
Holding hands, ready to be buried.
