If she glows
Keep from the shadows
If she bleeds gold, follow her trail
And hope picks up where I always fail
I mapped out our beginning
And highlighted our end
With red x’s dot to dot
Rocky roads, winding turns
I would’ve given you everything, anything
But you made your choice
When clocks start ticking
Time is on the run
Love we started on a click
With cracked sidewalks
Breaking backs
On rubber soles
In your agony, I was forever absent
Hard at work to help us through
Building our home
From room to room
Painted gold
Glowing my way
Where lampshades fold.
