How did you become mine

how did you become mine
through all that distance
all those chances
mistakes
lies and retelling

I loved you
alone and lost
afraid
and beaten down

You wrote your way into my soul
searching for the light you hoped I had
my dying flickering little light
we made words together
forging new paths
out of broken endings

You helped me turn a mistake
into a miracle

and you found light
in my darkest place.

    this is a lovely dedication to a very close and important spirit, a person who has given and breathed into a life something vital, vital as light, air and truth ... there is love here .... it is beautiful to read something this sincere and simple yet elegant and heartfelt ... Moqui
