These words are mine, and mine alone. They belong solely to me.

Feel free to write me and let me know what you think, always love to hear from you.

Blessed

I did not recognize your name

But I let you in all the same

By your boldness I was taken aback

It was gentle, not an attack

As you spoke I stood alone in awe

Time went on and then I saw

You are not in my life to hurt me

Taking me as I am, letting me be

I never found a person so easy to trust

You made it a simple little must

My world was turned right upside down

Gone the fearful moment and frown

I'd wandered through life all alone

Like a zombie or mechanical drone

You found that sparkle that had left my eye

Only to send me soaring in the sky

The words I spoke rang a haunting sound

Though only gentleness in yours I found

For a single moment I thought I'd run and hide

I chose to ride the wave and watch the tide

Greeted only by a friendship running deep

How could I turn, not listen, not speak

Nothing I said ever made you think any less

It was then that I knew I was truly blessed
