Saving Grace

You were the light
when I was afraid
& lost
in the dark,
stumbling,
                   falling,
                               & crying
alone.

You were there
when I needed you
& when I didn't.
You waited
daily,
         patiently,
                          & calmly
next to me.

You are my Saving Grace.
You lead me out
of the dark.
You stand next to me
smiling,
              singing,
                            & dancing
when I begged you
                                  to leave,
                                                 to give up on me,
                                                                                to stop making me so happy.

You never left.
