QUIET UNDERSTANDING

Silk so smooth yet so strong
Your arms felt like pure silk
My soul healed within your touch
So very rare those moments are

Unarming me with your charm
Driving hours to get to me so often
You took that road for us to share
Undressing me with your stare
Ultimately giving such deep care

Moments tears and quiet understanding
Your eyes that took me in captured
Such a special connection bonding
Why do I need to feel it all over again

Remembering sensing the power of time
Etched in my memory the beauty shared
Seeing now with clearer eyes how lovely
Cherishing what was and looking forward
For I sense it shall be again if I stay open

Letting in another to that level a challenge
To face down fear face the vulnerability
True strength in totally letting go to be bold
Seeing possibilities flourish brightly taking hold

I learned in your arms how to be healed
Now I reach out looking again to find
A woman as strong as loving and true
Ready to move on to treasure & cherish anew
