One Shot Wednesday – Week 37

YOU PULLED ME


I met you
and my world became
larger
Did you know that when you took my hand
you were pulling me into your life?
I started to see myself
my world
in a whole new light
interlacing your life with mine
into a knot I never want to untie
Things began to matter to me again  
Yes the rains came
but they nourished
rather than devoured 
cleansed
rather than stained
Things are very different
since you have touched me
I've fallen in love with you
in step with you
walking into the gentle light of our days together
When I sleep, you are always there
your hand in mine
through the lengthening shadows of time
When I wake
the warmth of you surrounds me
so simple
so familiar
so forever
in so many ways
As our love unfolds
it flowers into a life of wonder
We walk upon the stones we have placed
in the garden of our hearts
where our lifetime of love is forever set
Thank you for reaching out to me
My life is better because of the love you've given
You've touched my soul
and raised my spirits
You waited to see if I would fall
and fallen I have
I've fallen for you
When you took my hand
you pulled me into your life
and my world became
larger


YOUR TURN
ENJOY
