I'd Follow You

You exhale soft puffs of moist air,
Gravel crunches under soft soles,
As you breathe me in
And I breathe you.
I'd follow you,
Can't you see -
It doesn't matter where
As long as you're with me.
I'd follow you into the void,
Into the cold dark emptiness of space
Just to get you back, you know,
To where it's warm and safe.
I'd follow you into the darkest mood -
The hopelessness and unending gloom
And a light a candle for our love,
Watch its flame build and bloom,
Plant a little garden of candles,
Little love lights -
Orange scents and more.
And then leave it to spread
Out into the world
As it did before.
And I'll keep an eye out
To the distant horizon
Hoping, wishing forever
That we'll find this again,
That we'll lose ourselves
In each other.
