tonight

tonight, marks the first step of a long quest
as our hearts take flight and our dreams flourish
i hesitate, and reminisce
all of my loves that have fallen
battered and bruised
where did i go wrong before
and why did i have to endure
the pain, the hurt, and the loss
i couldn't help but think
that i have only sat on the shore
as the waves crash on the sand of my heart
slowly eroding away my love.
do i have anything left to give this hunter
who has entrapped my emotions?
can i regain everything that i have given away
and all that i saved for this last time?
can i give her all that she deserves
and all the she needs?
yes.
