Warm wishes expressed

Hand to hand- a soft caress

Cries of congratulations showered

Who would’ve thought we’d ever enter this hour.

Nights shouting in pain

Tears falling in sheets of rain

Cruel words and devastation

Daggers thrown in distain

As we travel towards or destination

A life of love and unification

We leave in our wake

Our guests who spake

“We knew you’d make it!”

And we did. For destiny’s sake.
