The wind billowed around us, whipping my hair about my head, ruffling her short ginger pixie cut. Her eyes bored into mine. She looked so certain, as if nothing in the world would change her mind, and it wouldn't. I couldn't understand her bravery. Tears were flowing down my own face. I was swallowing the ball of emotion that swelled in my chest. "It's okay." She smiled softly and laid her hand on my cheek. I looked down at it's failed attempts to wipe away the streams.

When they whisper promises
Meant to be broken.
When dark skies grow darker
And it begins to rain.
When I have a feeling
You'll be home again.
