Somehow, it's a sad reunion
I held my breath
as I watched, I wondered
how many of us
were waiting as I did
it was like a siege
outside the walls
the hurtful words
threatened
to break us from the inside
confused
afraid
from where I was
I can hear only
the pounding
of hearts
the signal...
the beacons...
we waited for them to light
we waited for you
so that
even though far apart
we could give, united
our battlecry
and yet
when the signal came
your faces were weary
and dark with doubt
and in my heart, I wondered
have we not been strong enough?
somehow, it's a sad reunion
and when I saw you
I learned how it feels
when a heart falls and breaks
how were we supposed to
know the magnitude
of your doubt?
it was only when the beacons lit
that we saw
you have been holding
the shadow at bay
on your own
for too long
please
shine brightly again
so that we will have reason to believe
please
have faith in us as well
