30 September 2012

I remember that night like yesterday

The darkest of our lives

The first time we ever argued

The first time I saw you cry

We started the evening civilly

Meeting at the hill

We walked and talked and giggled

The cool air quiet and still

But I started picking holes, you see

You got on your high horse

Said how I was controlling

I kept you there by force

I denied it loudly, scaring you

Yet then it seemed more true

You slapped my face and snapped

You said, that's it, we're through

But I grabbed your arms and told you

'You're not going anywhere

You can't leave me behind now

Without a single care'

'You're a dick' you shouted hoarsely

'I'll hate you the rest of my life

And if you don't let go of me

I'll get out my penknife'

I stepped back twice and looked away

And muttered something bad

I said 'I never loved you'

You stared like I was mad

Then your eyes began to water

Tears began to fall

I started to regret the fact

I said anything at all

I turned around, held out my arms

You fell into my embrace

I hugged you tight as you sobbed

I looked at your saddened face

'I'm sorry' I whispered quietly

'I don't want to hurt you again

But we have to be peaceful

We can't cause each other pain'

You nodded and snuffled and squeezed me

And we continued into the night

But that fight only made us stronger

Today, our love still burns bright.
