colors moving across the sand

sometimes blue, sometimes red

hands joined together

as we walk across the bridge

 

i see you smile 

maybe once, maybe twice

but in my heart

i will see it forever

 

your eyes light up

your face bright with a grin

i think it's this expression

that gives everyone the most joy

 

smart and witty

you think of plans that always work

people lean in to hear

and to participate

 

your hands shake with tremors

when we pass the highway

i guess your scars never faded

but i still forgive you

 

after all

it was your plan

that saved

me
