The Road
As I look back down the road we have traveled
I can see all the cracks in the pavement
Each one a reminder of what we've endured
If you look at each one more closely
You can see the tears and the laughter
You can hear every sigh and every scream
Some of them are deeper than the rest
These are indicators of the hardest times
Those made us stronger than we realized
What we have cannot be broken or burnt
It cannot be severed or laid to rest
It is enduring. It is for eternity.
Looking forward on this road we walk
I can already see tiny fissures forming
Trials to come and hurdles to face
Faith in us and in what we are together
That keeps me from veering off course
You are my fate and my evermore
