Something about your touch

Something about your touch

Just a whisper of you

Opens my heart like a flower

Kissed by the sun

Then love that is rising

Causes old demons

To come close

Fear could make me

Close these petals tight

Bringing memories of the long cold nights

Of loneliness and disconnection

I suffered

But somehow

As this darkness grows

Echoes

Of my heart’s truth

Ring loudly through my soul

Why do I need protection

From this healing warmth

The radiance of you

Yes,

These growing feelings of safety and trust

Are so brand new

But isn’t it more than time for me

To take a chance

On love?
