You touched me,
I became you.
You slipped inside my heart,
And filled me with you.
You've lead me,
And followed in my shadow,
You've brushed the tears
From my swollen cheeks.
The nightmares faded
In the softness of your embrace.
You touched me,
And healed me.

Life has tested us
And we have parted.
Our paths have entangled,
And we have feuded.
In your eyes,
Is the only peace
That I have ever known.
When we touch,
The world doesn't seem so bad.
And I can face tomorrow.

------------------
That which does not kill us..makes us stronger.

I think you've really hit on a sensitive point in all relationships. Though it would be wonderful to always get along and experience only joy, realistically because of imperfection we all falter at times. Yet love, warmth, and forgiveness are the kindest of arms to be held in. Thanks for your work Tammie
