Struggling Through the Day

I want to look into your eyes,
and let the world pass us by
while I learn all of your secrets.
Tell them to me
and as we lay on this bed,
watch as all your dreams come to fruition,
even as your mind comes alive.
It's a tough world we live in,
and with the rising of each day
we struggle on,
each in our own private battles with the world;
Separate, but alone
for we reach out our hands
take our place beside each other
and join strengths
