Love Like This

If only you knew, how long I've waited for a love like this ...

Prayed, upon damp pillows, hid my scars behind a smile ...

I deserve this...

I deserve too finally be happy ...

I deserve every kiss, every touch, every genuine warm embrace...

The brisk chills that run up & down my spine, is this really mine...

A love like this ...

It didn't arrive, in the form in what's considered the norm ...

So far down the path we've walked hand and hand, pushing thru each and every obstacle that stands in Our way...

Yet the butterflies linger in my stomach, as if we just met the day before ...

I earned this love ...

A love like this ...

I should not be looked down upon, or my talents ignored because I've already found my soulmate...

We zinged...

Her energy matched mine, I felt at home for once in my life ....

Like a turtle in its shell, or that missing puzzle piece...

A love like this ...

She stayed when everyone walked away...

She mended my wounds before her own ...

She believed in my gifts, when no one else would ...

She saw my beauty thru my brokenness ...

Instead of doubting my God, she prays with me ...

Lift's me up, and loves me ...

I am whole...

I'm complete...

I'm forever grateful for a Love Like This....
