Charades

Theres a Painting on your wall
Of two big waterfalls
That flow into each other like us
One of them is subtle and the other one is fighting with a wind
To catch up

The water touches color
And the light begins to cover up the dark in us
And the waterfall reflects on me
The one true thing I see in you

Theres an apple from your apple tree in your
Backyard that fell so far like us
It stands out from the rest
Cause it's the brightest shade of red
Like our love once was

We watched it fight with gravity
And listened to it fall into a
Bed of leaves
The apple shed an apple seed
And grew into a tree for you Here's our only conversation we've ever had
Without using our words to show
And our love is a creation of all the things
That have ever had a chance to grow

There's the neighbor kid who's sitting by the street
With confidence and smiles selling lemonade
A quarter at a time he takes from everyone
Who sees his wooden sign he worked so hard to make

He stood for hours selling smiles around
The neighborhood until he finally came to us
We took our sips and smiled and he said
Are you in love?

Here's our only conversation we've ever had
Without using our words to talk
And our love is a creation of all the things
That have ever had the chance of
The chance of growing up
