On Certainty

How do you know if you love me

And how am I so sure

When certainty stands in the light

Of the phases of the moon

You take my hand, declaring

"I'm yours, by the stars, I swear"

I pull away, knowing

Some nights are too dark for the day

So I travel solitarily

To the safety of my despair

Then I knew you love me

When you said, "I'll walk with you there"
