YOU & I
I am yours, you are mine
Entangled, enlaced, entwined
Woven together so beautifully
Perfectly aligned,
You and I
A network of fibres you've spun
A yarn of yearning
That pulls at my heart
Even when we don't see as one
I say it's over
But fall back under
In, out
Up, down
With syncretic motion
You sow us back together
A familiar pattern
Connected by a common thread
Our love
a garment of warmth
I proudly wear
Entangled, enlaced, entwined
Woven together so beautifully
Perfectly aligned,
You and I
A network of fibres you've spun
A yarn of yearning
That pulls at my heart
Even when we don't see as one
I say it's over
But fall back under
In, out
Up, down
With syncretic motion
You sow us back together
A familiar pattern
Connected by a common thread
Our love
a garment of warmth
I proudly wear
