All Over Again

You understand

You have uncovered inside me a heart that can shout for joy

I can lift my heart to your handed gifts

You are the strong line that fastens me

In commotion you are the million pieces of my relief

 

I’ve cried so often

On my knees I have screamed

In the crumbling of my life

God have mercy of this broken woman I am

Sensations of sorrow pour over me

I am forever thin-skinned

Fighting my own purpose

I am frightened of the human race

But here I am vulnerable

I have set the hundred masks free from their prison of my needing

 

No more acting

My eyes, and soul are bared naked before you

I need for nothing more than our embrace

You are more than a wish that happened

 

You broke free from what others held you by

You help me find answers

to questions that make me so angry sometimes

 

 

There has never been a yesterday I have left behind,

where I did not love the idea of the morning sun

It doesn’t matter anymore

Another day with you

Is just right

Even if we did everything the same

all over again

 

I love you
