You Saw Me

I was nervous and alone,

Didn't know I was in need of a home,

But then you came,

And made my life complete,

Which, I must confess, was no easy feat.

You weren't detoured,

By the past and histories galore,

Instead you met me at the door,

And invited me into your,

Heart to explore.

No hesitations or reservations,

No fear of ramification,

Even though some thought you in derision,

You fought against the opposition,

Confident in your decision.

I had a hard time letting others in,

Steely eyes and tilted chin,

Yet you chiseled down the walls I'd built,

Rid myself of former guilt,

Only you, with your besotted grin,

Could convince me to try and love again.

Because when I see that look in your eyes,

I know everything will be alright,

It pacifies my tears, calms all my fears,

Fills me with peace on the inside,

Then again, I'm not surprised.

'Cause when I'm with you, I feel free,

Like everything I want to be,

And when you get down on one knee,

My heart will dance in jubilee,

And I'll spend an eternity,

Wrapped within your love for me.
