"It is me" you whispered.
I did not listen.
I turned away and faced
time alone that was fruitless.
You tipped my chin up
for I looked only down.
Down at my broken heart
down at my broken body.
When I looked up at last
you were there,
a smile on your lips
a twinkle of promise in your eye.
My heart fluttered in disbelief
fear from past hurts,
anxiety of the unknown,
faltering of the mind.
Slowly I took your hand
followed you forward.
Learning to trust,
trusting to smile.
Finally finding my heart...
in you!
