New

For most of my life
there has been ups and downs
but now there is no jokes
no dumb, pointless clowns.
When i think of you
i think about a candle
about the gentle warmth
that i can handle.
The sweet scent
floats by my nose
through an open door
that i never close.
We have a lot in common
and i like it
your hand and mine
may just fit.
We'll never know
until we try
don't be scared
you won't cry.
Even if you did
I'd wipe your tears
no longer afraid
to face your fears.
Together we could
overcome it all
facing the evil
never taking a fall.
I feel like we
couldn't be stopped
together we'd survive
if we got dropped.
We would be strong
together we stand
walking along
hand in hand.
We will see
what happens on the way
tomorrow is
a brand new day.
