Something About Us Poem by Sean Toland

The night it grows still,
and the mountains go black,
we have come too far,
we most certainly can't go back,

I reach inside for the courage to say,
It's late and your tired, for tonight, please stay,

The morning brings clarity,
And warmth all around,
I look at her and smile,
As she lays naked on the ground,

Should I put on some pressure,
I am scared she will get peaved,
I whisper to her softly,
Please don't leave,

As the dusk settles,
And the sky turns to a blue,
I whisper out the words,
'I love you',

Just then I panic,
But then you pull through,
You look at me longingly,
and whisper 'I love you too'
