Love

You came to me like a silent cry

Strange, unusual but your love I couldn’t deny.

You had a way with my mind that forced me to open my heart.

I tried to stray away but didn’t know where to start.

You proved to me I was deserving of all you had in store; and it was just the beginning. I deserved so much more.

It’s hard to reach somebody that can’t hear, so you put yourself in my heart and I heard you clear.

For every brick you knocked down; I would put one up and then you destroyed my wall from the ground up.

Nurturing my wounds and reintroducing me to love

Stroking my insecurities as you filled them up.

Forcing me to see what you saw in me, allowing me to be the person I needed to be.

because you loved me
