You And I

Hold my hand,

and let the pain burning in my heart,

dissolve in the warmth of your touch.

Kiss me on my lips,

to let me taste the breath of peace,

the peace I refused to believe exists.

Touch my soul,

with the sound of your heartbeat,

to let my senses unfold in a way,

that’s unbeknownst to me.

Run your fingers in my hair,

to show me I am not bounded by any strings,

to love, to learn, to grow, and to begin feeling whole again!
