UNTIL YOU

Folder: 
JOURNAL #22

there was little rain in my life

until you opened up your clouds

there was little conversation in my life

until you showered me with your words

there was little thought out side those

of my own

until you threw yours at me like a book

and I read its every revealed page to me

twice

who could have guessed that our lives would

twine

that you would bare the darkness that rests

in your soul

and I would help to break you just a little

more free

by running you head on into mine

we are quite a pair

enchanted by the pull

in a time

where to say I Love You

can almost seem cruel

but not from you

you revel in the moment

my grown up Charlie Brown

so seeing as I'm getting very sleepy

I had better wind this down..........
