We The Fools

I love you in whispers

And in silent songs

Though you may not hear it

It still goes on

I love you in the shadows

For the light shines

On all our mistakes

And brings forth from us pained cries

I love you in the cold

Where we need each other's flesh

To keep the fire in our veins

And turn our hearts to ash

I love you in the silence

A deafening roar in our ears

Only half-there in existence

Confirming our worst fears

I love you in the emptiness

For our love is undefined

A hopeless love, this is

For the Fates are unkind

I love you in the stars

Too far for me to capture

And yet I try to grasp still

Because I am enraptured

I love you in the villainy that is life

For though you and I love each other truly

We are big, undeniable fools

Because this love is only going to hurt us deeply
