My face was held tenderly in your hands
Time stopped a tear dropped
It caressed your being
And you loved me more

My chest heaved
I gasped for air
You whispered in my ear
Evidence of you care
Your whisper made rivers flow from my face
You grabbed hold of me with haste
In your arms I am wrapped so snuggly
Sweet promises still coming from you
Nothing said smugly

Inside myself I fell
My heart no longer whole but shattered
Having been through torturous torment
My appearance is grim
For I am all beaten and battered
Chances of survival seem very slim

With one touch my mind was put to ease
Your hand moved deep in my soul
Jaded spirit
You then reached down in my cold hollow hole
It was there sorrow reigned
On despair’s prevalent knoll

Searching for satisfaction
Completeness is what I need
Fulfillment of joy and exuberance
Is what you instilled in me indeed

Adoring you, I acquiesce to your commands
Never questioning your decisions
I only wonder about your plans
Gifts of comfort, lengthy steps of praise
Hope leads the way
As faith presses forward
Through the dark and heavy haze  

That all passed by within two seconds,
Reality’s time had not been clear to me
My tears are no more
I lift my head so I can see
Your face does not scare me
You insert a peace within
No longer broken or hurting
I thank you with a grin
In two seconds your arms and hands held me close to you
In one full moment you made me anew

This battle is over, the war not yet done
Thank you most adored one, for being my hero
Shining brightly in the midnight sun

~*~Hope restores broken wings; faith helps us fly.~*~
