a dedication

                  you walked lightly into my life
                  captivating my mind,
                  at first, i never cared who you were
                  now i don’t know who i am without you,
                  you kissed me
                  i felt my world change,
                  you held me
                  i heard my heart awaken,
                  you loved me
                  and my soul was born anew
                  you walked lightly into my life
                  now my heart knows who you are
                  and with every breath
                  and every step
                  i take down lonely roads,
                  your hand is my staff
                  your voice is my guide
                  your strength my shelter
                  you’re passion my awakening.
                  you walked lightly into my life,
                  and all my pain
                  you took as your own,
                  and all my fears
                  you cast into the sea,
                  all my doubt
                  lost in your eyes,
                  you walked lightly into my life
                  my life is forever changed,
                  just because you loved me
                  and because i chose
                  to love you
                  for the rest of mine

devastation struck me.
history of the past.
when i was at rock bottom
i couldn’t find the way of light.
your outstretched hand was my cushion of life
and i was glad it was yours

everything accelerated after that
two runners decided to stop and pant
afraid of the feelings felt
the anchor of our love pulled us down
a miracle it was for some to quote

now that a year has passed
i’ve grown in love with you
everyday when i thought i couldn’t love you more
you amazed me at how i could

you became my friend
you became my soul
you became the one i was searching for

                  my heart is complete
                  with the love we share,
                  and our love grows more
                  beautiful each day
