It's been 237 days

Safely inside the walls of Peterson we never knew what storms meant. Linked arm in arm we walked aimlessly around what we thought were catastrophes.
How lucky were we to have each other within fingertips reach.
Scream. So I know that you're alive.
Cry. So I know you're feeling.
Laugh. So I know you remember our together.
But scream so I know you are alive.
We are left to our own presence now and it is something more than fear.
Tangled up together our midnight messes and predinner thankful's. Overlapping here are our darkest torments and every time we forgot to say I love you.
So tonight, just scream. Scream and please cry.
Because, it's okay to be alone and it's okay to feel lost. Just promise me never to forget again. Such strong words and I carve my heart into each, begging you to understand my love.
I cry for you tonight.
But, My Love, it does not end there.
I laugh for us in remembering.
Laugh with me, even if our fingers are not folded in prayer together and our arms aren't linked as we walk this road.
