For the night

For the night

A Poem by Ashes
"

The night's so pretty when we're crying

"

The stars are out
and we've got the cure
to make it all better
even if only for an hour

Everything can only go down hill from here
if you believe the critics
but that's our fate
only if it's chosen

So take my hand
like it's the last thing you'll do
because I swear
these scars will make something great of us one day
even though we have so much despair

Let the words be whispered
if only for tonight
and let's stay here
just a little bit longer
even if it's right.
