Day One

Nothing can stop us now

There will be moments
where we feel we are invincible
that nothing can stop us

and these are the moments I fear in life
the brief glimpses of optimism
when you forget yourself and say maybe

this could all turn out okay.
It's like when you're in a shop and say
This is the most beautiful crystal swan

I have ever seen,
it will look so perfect on our mantelpiece
and moments later the assistant is on her hands and knees

with a dustpan and brush
and the manager is taking your credit card details
and you don't understand how it slipped from your hands.
