"You need someone to love you and accept you. Because through the love others show you, you begin to see yourself through that person's eyes and learn to love yourself. Only through the eyes of another can you truly see the beauty that is you." ~Gee (a.k.a. Me)
*~*~*~*~*
"Give me your hand," said Love. "And I will take it all away."
"I will give you joy for ashes, a heart of beautiful array."
Then Sorrow looked upon him, her heart filled with death.
"Could Love possibly heal me?" she murmured in a whispering breath.
Pain had always been her friend. Darkness is what she knows.
Alone, who could ever want her? Her friend, Lonely, told her so.
But Love was so inviting, his warmth pulling her close.
"I will love you as you are, to you my heart I want to show."
So Sorrow stretched out to him, hand-in-hand with Love.
"Take me from this place," she said. "Beyond the clouds above."
And Love finally embraced her, his beloved, that was she.
"Your name is no longer Sorrow," he said. "It is Loved, for you are loved by me."
