Thankful
For your patience and understanding
for the gentle words
the safety of your arms
for the pain in your eyes as I open my soul to you
I thank you.
The reassurance that you won't look at me differently
That the scars upon my skin don't make you turn away
I thank you.
For your time... for your thought
for letting me be me
you get yourself into my skin
so the walls fall away and for that
I thank you.
To bare my secrets to you in a blessing and a curse
I wish they weren't there to tell you
but life is what it is...
Yet here you still are
still wanting to know me and for that
I feel I can smile and be free
For that...
I am thankful for you.
