Hope
Sleeping
He is sleeping
In a cocoon of
Safety
As his memories
Slowly
Drift
Away.
Watching
She is watching
Waiting and waiting for
Him
To come home.
Breathing
He is breathing
The tide of the oceans
Echoing
The rise and
Fall
Of his chest.
Praying
She is praying
Her fingertips numb with
Cold
In the harsh winter breeze
Her eyes are closed
Lips moving
Soundlessly
Praying for
Him
To be safe.
Waking
He is waking
In a ruin of a house
Surrounded by
Wolves
He knows
Nothing
Of who he is
Who he was
Nothing except
Her
He remembers
Her
Just her name
But that is enough to
Give
Him
Hope.
Planning
She is planning
Pencils flying across the pages
As she plans the ship
That will take her to
Him.
Fighting
He is fighting
Hundreds and hundreds of
Dead soldiers
There is no hope
But he is fighting
Because
Bit
By
Bit
He remembers.
Flying
She is flying
Shooting through the sky like a
Star
She can feel
Him
Closer ever closer.
A judo flip
A goddamn judo flip
And he smiles
Because this is
Her
In all her grey eyed
Glory
And he
Knows
That he loves her.
And She knows that She loves Him too.
