thank you
i am eternally grateful
for the little things you do
that light me up like a christmas
tree
thank you for smiling at me
thank you for giving me that look,
you know the one
where you see right through
all the bullshit that i keep at the surface
as if it was all made of glass;
you act as if my shields were not even there
when you peer into my very core
and discover all my weaknesses
all my mistakes, my fears, my sins
and every flaw i have ever tried to hide;
you see it all
and here i stand before you
completely naked
defenseless
ready to die
but instead
of taking advantage
of my vulnerable state
you promise
to
reach out
and wrap me up
tight
and never let me
go
and i
feel safe
if only for
a little
while
