Feeling Loved

[Sweetcherrie]

I had a wall around me,

built with broken dreams.

Now the cracks are healing;

Your gentle words

close off the seams.

 

Without a warning,

without a sign,

not taken over,

freely given this time.

 

I had no faith inside me,

hurt and distrust reigned.

Now those fears are fading;

Your gentle love

frees me from pain.

 

Without a struggle,

without a fight,

not holding back,

warmly embrace your fire.

 

I locked my love within me,

vowed to nevermore.

Now that oath’s forgotten;

Your gentle heart

makes my heart soar.

 

Without the wall,

without the fear.

No longer blind.

 

Without the pain,

without the hurt.

No longer lost.

 

Feeling loved,

 

Just feeling loved.

[reverie]

I think I'll steal a page from Cyril and try using the critics corner for a change.
