I walked along the terrace
and let my thoughts
bleed and flow.
I spoke to myself,
like the crazy person I am,
and discussed my need to be free
from his hold, and then suddenly
I realized you helped me,
relieved me of the pressure,
and now I’m free.
I’m free to give you my heart.
I sat on a bench
and watched the snow fall.
As I watch the snowflakes
fill up your hurt and confused and angry
foot prints, I understood
I’d be flat and lost without you.
The thought of losing you
crushed every inch of me until
I remembered the love we have.
And I’m free to give you my heart.
Every time I’m near you -
you are saving me.
Every time I hear you -
you are saving me.
You are saving me every day
from what I don’t want to do again
and I couldn’t be happier
that you are the one saving me.
And you have my heart.
