You Healed Me

My world had become an endless compilation of days upon nights.

My days busy doing the bidding of others. My nights spent contemplating a love I knew would never come.

I shared nor desired the company of another forced into the contentment of solitude.

I had suffered at the hands of so many that I camouflaged my heart and soul to appear as though I possessed neither.

We met by chance; photos and words caught our eyes. A conversation changed our paths.

Beneath your red baseball cap peered eyes that saw into my very soul.

In the light, your stare caused me to redden with blush.

Length of time had no bearing on your care of me. Your lack of flash endeared you more to me.

An inaudible herald announced the advent of love. We discovered that love in its entirety when we first joined.

Our bodies fit precisely together with nothing separating you from me, not even air came between us.

It was at the moment of my physical exhortation pleading for a release that only you could provide, that I knew.

I knew, I understood and I reveled in the knowledge that you had come to heal me.
