***Falling into you I found myself For with you I was never lost Blinded by an unkind past The present, tinged with shame Became my only truth Then... I saw you You gazed upon me Open and trusting And I could no longer hide from myself Your eyes peel me naked And I stand bare before you awaiting a judgment that will never come You see what I thought I lost What felt like it died long ago You see who I used to be Who I always have been And because it's you I believe it's true Your smile is my hope Your heart carries my heartbeat Your eyes, so full of love Prove that I am all I ever wished to be All I was supposed to be Before life beat the joy out of me You found me and I knew I knew you were mine I knew you before I met you I dreamed you alive so long ago, And here in my heart, I fell in love In your love, in loving you... I can learn to love me***
