The Love of Two

So you chisel on news
Body you want if you'll lose
A shape beneath your hands
And then daydreams of the future
Become peaceful nights of slumber
Wake in holding
To pull each other closer

And when the sky darkens
We won't be afraid
And when the wind ascends
With all that we've made

To each other in a home
Eyes closed tight
While all that we've made is slowing
And smashing through the night

With all else gone
We step back and smile
And watch our eyes
Each other's eyes

Standing where our home once stood
A Nebraska sun
Showing life the love of two
