Unearned Joy

by Taurenelle

Why can't we have more moments like this?
When the wall you built comes crashing down.
As if my love was never remiss;
As if your trust was never unwound.


When the wall you built comes crashing down,
The mistakes I've made have gone away.
As if your trust was never unwound
And my unearned joy is here to stay.

 

The mistakes I've made have gone away,
As if my love was never remiss,
And my unearned joy is here to stay.
Why can't we have more moments like this?
