Let This Day Last Forever

On a shallow day last November,

I found you in the snow.

I was on my way to my apartment,

so I took you home.

Filled you with food, called you my own.

I said “Welcome, my dear, to your new home”.

And we were together

as if it were written in the stars

like a fairytale

And you took me in, just as I took you in.

The good, the bad, and the in between.

And we made ourselves a part of one another.

Love, like a run-away train.

We hold on tight, hope we don't crash,

Let this day last forever.

(and it will, in our hearts and minds, together)
