Need
You could help me
Heal me even
But you have a quality that blinds me
From seeing who I really am
Like a diamond in the sun
You’re beauty cannot be re-drawn
You’re past cannot be un-done
Trapping slivers of your grace
In threads in my sweater
So that I can hold you close
And feel a little better
Eyes like a rain forest
Too deep to venture into the depth
I can’t see what you hide
But then again I know you too well
So much that I know turning back
Is a mistake
That in order to leave
My heart would have to break
