the embrace

My burden was heavy
On my heart and soul
Had my mind churning
Me in a state of discontent
Feeling alone and sad
All this on the inside
Yet on the outside
I was showing nothing but
Defiance to everyone
Pretending not be afraid
That I am happy alone
Dont need anyone at all
Hiding my all my fears
Never alowing my tears to flow
No one ever looked past the
Hard core demeanor I present
Except you
Let me know that you see more
Knew that I was hurting but hiding it
Wanted to help in any way you could
When i said go away you said why
That you just wanted be there for me
No nothing you wanted from me
Just my company no sex needed
No special way did you want me to be
All wanted was just me as I am inside
You touched me emotionally and mentally
Understanding that me liking me
It is why I lay my head on you
To rest my mind lay heart on yours
To sooth it calm it open my soul
T o yours alllowing yours to touch mine
Feel all it has seen and felt
You have accepted what I am inside and out
Why I know that in your embrace
There is happiness peace comfort and love
