Over and over
Your face in my head
Keeps me spinning round
Trying to hold on steady
To keep from falling down

Lost you once were,
Thought your soul was gone
Tossed into an endless ocean
Never allowing time for
The slow crush of emotion

I suppress the urge
The most basic desire
To express what I feel
So with furtive glances
These moments I steal

Watching you flower
With tender care
Like a bloom in spring
From a seed laid dormant
Is such a wonderful thing

Love comes to heal,
To strengthen you
And to purify
I watch as you grow wings
And soar into the sky

Absolutely gorgeous write, soft and gentle caress of words.
I'm keeping this one in my library.
Another touchdown.....

Touchdown, as Kacy says;

but touched, indeed, by the beauty
of your spirit to lift one other.

This is grace, and giving...

and love.

Beautiful, and regardless of who reads it,
they will know it was for them.

This loving appreciation of another's growth is exhilerating... and yes... wonderful. *S* Absolutely beautiful!
