What do you do with words?
You know exactly how you feel,
The intensity of what you feel,
But how do you eloquently
And accurately
Convey this to others?

Even the challenge itself
Can feel so defeating
I just want to be seen for who I am
Exactly as I am
Right now.

I want to be held.
And when he looks into my eyes,
Know that he sees me.
Understands my pathetic needs
And complexities
Only God, our source,
Could know them all

But if he could make me feel
Even somewhat reciprocated
Right where I'm at
Just as I am
I think that would be enough

But even if he could,
I think all I could even say
Is **thank you.
