Believe In Me

I believe 
That we are at a peak
Leaning on a tree trunk
Strongly rooted and reaching out to the milky sky
And as we lay our heads on one another
My arms crowning yours
Our eyes lay affixed on the horizon
How beautiful the sun’s stained rays are
Emerging, they suffused with the cotton riddled sky
Such radiance in one’s balance
To think that a moment ago the sky’s jet black darkness
With trickles of stars to barely show us the sign
And suddenly, far out in the east, beams of light 
Transcends the dark, illuminating the sky

Now it’s perfect daylight
And we immersed into one another’s 
Eyes, knowingly
Storms will come, gales never at bay
But for all nature’s plights
We’ll never barge from this tree
Cos’ against all nature’s cruelty
We will still have each other
