One Year

One Year

A year has gone by

Since the first time I met you

Creating memories

One at a time

Our long walks

Our silly chats

Our silent moments overlooking sunset

Somehow

My heart squeeze in pain

When I thought of

The possibility of

Us being apart

So I reached out for your hand

Intertwining my fingers with yours

Wishing that our story

Will never end.

Listen

Listen

The sound of waves crashing on to boulders

Reminds me of your stubbornness

How you stood still by your opinion

Unwavering

The gust of wind that swayed deep rooted trees

Reminds me of your strength

Saving me

As I was about to fall

You pulled me to your chest

and said

“Clumsy”

But despite your composure

I am aware

That you are anxious

As I listen to

Your heart

Skipping

A beat.
