Your heart breathes before me
Quavering and fearful
A petal unfolds

O but the slightest thought
of ridicule
Drops the gate

And hiding tight you hold yourself
in fearful arms
Wildly hoping

that I might have liked
what you let me see

and i most certainly do

He is so fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose - Jim Elliot

Yup, it's nice.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

This is perfect! Beautiful!

It means something to me, I can relate to it. And it was said in such a wonderful, perfect way!

Congratulations
