Journey

we knew where we wanted to go

shared that singular desire

to discover a place

we both knew existed

but was always beyond our grasp

we committed ourselves to the journey

braced ourselves for the long, bumpy road

prepared to get lost once in a while

and hoped to get back on track easily

we were fools, of course

reaching our destination

we made the most of our stay

enjoying every moment

yet knowing deep inside

it may not last forever after all

I realize I am

where I am suppose to be

I look back at all that has come to pass

my hardship, my pains

and this is what I got in return

I look at you beside me

seemingly content at what we have for now

it all becomes clear to me

we are here for a reason

a lesson to be learned for each other
