Courtship

RSS

By Anna Lorena

I give you a spark And you return to me a blaze- I send you a bulb And next I see a flower in full bloom- I come to you with only a glimmer of hope And in a moment find a bright new journey: These are only the beginning. I find myself sinking But your hand pulls up my head- I run from emotion But you wait patiently with trust- I hide within without understanding But you wait outside the door for me to emerge: These are only the beginning. I speak harshly So you let me alone for a while- I push you away So you allow me the space I've created- I cry in a corner and blame you instead So you wait for me to come to my senses: These are only the beginning. I sit in my darkness You offer me your light- I regret m stupid actions You freely forgive my transgressions- I crawl out of my shell ashamed You open your arms for me to fall into them: These are only the beginning. I appologise in tears You whipe them away and remind me you've forgiven- I want to hide my face You tip i up to look in my eyes- I bury myself in your embrace You hold me as long as I need: These are only the beginning. Magnify, Grow, Unveil Help, Believe, Unlock Time, Distance, Understand Reveal, Enfold, Unabashed Cleanse, Forgive, Unashamed Love consists of all these here- But these are only the beginning.
