Hi!  I've been gone for quite a while now.  Looks like the place has gone through some changes.  Well, so have I.  Glad to be back.
                                     ---Diana


I love you.

In these three words, I have found hope again.
When you spoke them, I was amazed that someone like you
     could love someone like me.
I didn't know what to say,
I almost made you think that I didn't love you,
That's how long I took.

"You don't have to say it" is what you said.
But I did say it back to you.
I was just surprised to hear it first from your lips.
Seeing as it usually comes from mine.

We've shared so much since them.
Dreams and desires,
          Heartaches and heartbreaks,
                    Love and light,
                              Stories and secrets.
Including one that I didn't think that I could tell you.

And now, you've told me a secret of your own.
It's something that you weren't sure that you could tell me.
But, you did.
And for that, I am thankful.

You worry if I will stop loving you because of what you've told me.
If I'll hate you or think less of you.
I stop and consider what you've just told me.
And I turn to you with a smile on my face
and love in my heart.
I can see that you're crying, wondering what I'm going to say.

What else would I say to you
but
"I Love you"?

Hello everyone:

Thank you all so much for your words of welcome back.  I see, as I said before, that things have changed a little around here.  But, I have too, and for the better.  

I hope to able to share much more of myself with you in the days and months to come.  I've been away too long, and the words have been trapped in me even longer.

Thank you all again, for everything.

--Diana
