This October

So pretend this is me
Saying all the words I couldn't say
This is me whispering in your ear
That everything will be okay

Feel the warmth and security
That you found in my arms
Wrapped around you so closely
Keeping you from the world's harms

Remember my hand reaching down to yours
Embracing and holding on for our lives
Remember when the sun came and we weren't ready to leave
But nothing was left but goodbyes

Never forget the nights when we could smile
For the morning would bring us closer together
Think of the time when all that was on our minds
Was the 31st of October

And how perfect we were
And still are in so many ways
How everything started with a warm embrace
And how it could end in just a few days

But I want you close
And I want the future
Above everything else
I want this October

This is me
Helping you through
Whispering in your ear
I will always love you
