When I thought that my heart was closed
I fell upon a diamond in the rough
At first seeing it at nothing special
Then over time...
It shined.
It glowed.
It glimmered.
It smiled.
In the pit of my own despair
A glimmer of light came down
Lifting me back up to my feet
Making me whole once more
That glimmer was you...
You let my heart open up once more
You let my mind know that I didn't have to look
That I didn't have to wait
To be able to find it
To be able to grasp it
To hold it
To feel it
You let me know what love is
How encompassing it is
How warm it is
How nurturing it is
Now I just yearn for your touch
Your love
Your caring hugs.
But I know...
All will come in due time.
