Uncertainty

When all certainties melt away,
I still have you.
When the ground shifts beneath my feet,
Your grip is firm.
When shadows shift,
And the night time comes,
Your presence leads me on.

A touch,
A breath,
A fleeting moment,
Helps me know
That you are here.

The world so fragile,
Insubstantial,
Holding its breath,
Waiting,
Watching.
Through it all,
I still have you,
But more than that,
You have me.
