so long ago...

I stumbled
and nearly fell away
but you caught me
and held me
and soothed the poisons
from my veins
as I lay crippled by doubt
and blinded by loss
you carried me on
and made me see hope
when I would have refused
and find strength
when I would have ended it all

now...

in vivid hues and twinkling stars
you write your love for me
across the sky
and your name is carved
on my heart forever
and for always
no mere words
could ever convey
my graditude for your faith
and your love
which can only be met
by my love and my faith
in you

~with love always~
