Preservation

Poem 5

I stumbled across you and
You caught me
Just barely
Just by your fingertips
Just by the end of that loc of hair
That falls into those curious eyes
Your touch brought to me a feeling I'd forgotten
Your soft whisper cast away my fears
You were like something new
I saw behind those eyes
An understanding I never knew I would find
A calmness like a sea
Resting it's waves for the first time
Like the moon turning it's face
With you I was no longer what I was
But what I could be
