At the Edge of Disaster

It could have been too late
like a desperate dream replayed
long after the moment passed
spun from shadows cast
and memories that would not fade

Yet you arrived when all looked grim
The aurora itself was growing dim
We stood at the edge of disaster
and found our happily ever after
just as the darkness settled in

Each cut and every pressure builds
a newer peace and stronger will
No matter the terror in this night
or the melancholy of past plights
I plan to hold you ever still
