Paper Boat

standing apart
love we were in
wanted to meet
were afraid to swim,
in this ocean of love.
Then we found a ship
on which we sailed
across the rainbow
and the storms that hailed
inside our hearts.
One day a cloud above burst
and we drifted
towards a cascade
we turned around but we hit
an iceberg.
Ship started breaking 
We couldn't stay afloat
yet didn't wanna admit
that the ship we thought was strong
was just a paper boat.
