silence is safe
"Are you ready yet?"
I look up, I gave him a nod
"Then we shall head north."
We began walking
into the forests
into the forests
and he took my right hand
We are on the hills now
both of us almost breathless
He slows his pace
then stopped
I look at him while he adjusts his lenses
"Hold on,
I can see the sun from here"
I knew then
he took a picture of me
he took a picture of me
of my hair
with the sun
we reached the peak,
"finally," he says
"look at the sun"
as I breathe in the cold air
he wraps me with his warmth
"isn't it beautiful?"
I look at him
I tell myself
I am grateful
I am grateful
