BEAUTIFUL
No blade, song, pencil or form of art
Could ever relieve my stress and pain
Uplift my soul and elevate my mind
Gently caress my ever-delicate heart
The way I’ve found she does
It could be the freckles that dot her nose
Or the way she holds my tiny hands
Maybe the way my heart flutters by the sound of her voice
The comfort of her petting me; her hands tangled within my golden strands
It’s like my heart stops when our gaze meets
And for a small moment
Her kind eyes make me forget everything in the past
My whole life makes seems complete; I feel as if it’s really been time well spent
Up until these moments without her
The endless nights of tears
All but gone; forgotten; nothing
Her whole existence rids my mind of fear
Her caring touch silences the voices
Calming my every concern and doubt
I’ve never felt this way
Now I know what the craze over love is all about
I feel so lucky
So blessed beyond compare
She’s everything I never knew I needed
My heart no longer lay bare
