Come get lost with me,

In a story all to ourselves.

Where wild dreams meet,

And we face these challenges together.

We will taste the salt spray

Upon an undiscovered sea.

As we unfurl sails and glide,

To new lands that must be.

Build a kingdom under a foreign sky,

And call the untamed wild our home.

Both moon and Star will guide our feet,

As we look for an end to our new world.

When we happen upon the edge,

With dizzying heights and stars beyond.

Let us rest in each other’s arms,

And dream of what lies beyond.

Awaken with me as new creatures,

Shedding crumbling shells of the past.

Take flight with me from that stirring edge,

And reach to the very cosmos.

There we will find our infinity,

Young and unafraid of what is.

In a story all our own,

Come get lost with me.
