I had held in my hands, The bitter shards of my heart. I had thrown them away, To be forgotten in the dust. I had cried for an answer, A solution A plan A direction A reason why I failed. I had seen no road other than alone. In my self-hate, I had lashed myself, For my ignorance and naievety. For being a fool in love. And then, I found a light space in my soul, I glimmer of warmth. A handhold out of the dark. I found a comfort in your smile, A place where I fit in your hand. A safety in your arms. I want to say to you, That you had brought into my life, Something I had thought was lost And I was never to find again. I have peace, That I am safe with you. That I can trust your smile. That I can believe your words. That your hands are for care, Not pain. Thankyou, For being in my life. You make me happy.
