lifted up

where were you before

you illuminated the yellow inside me
days when it was too sunny at noon to walk
so you reintroduced the tug at my legs to catch up
listening to my heartbeat at each step, quickening my pulse
a rescue from the plummet in the present
i’m glad we can share this road together side by side
from this moment onward, i’ll make sure you hear this once extinguished brilliance
