MEANINGFUL WAYS
You see right through me
Never have I known this to be
Somehow what they all miss you see
You feel me
Always getting right to the point
How do I allow you in so easily
Feeling the intensity
From your sweetness
Caring for me like no one else
You challenge all that I know
Leaving me to struggle
With all the comfort
Of a real friend that isn't just taking
Rediscovering how to share and lay it all bare
Fear arises when I know
You see all of me
Including all of the insecurity
Sensing your strength
Even from the gentle look upon your face
Soothing words that flow
You stay steady not going anywhere
Knowing just what to say to ease the fear
Even when the tears flow over
Knowing I won't drown
For you are still here so close
It seems that we are meant to be
We have bonded in meaningful ways
No matter what arises
We always seek the path
To trust in the other to get us through
For ours is a friendship that is true
