Splash! I slipped into the frightening abyss of love

Paddling for dear life, anxious butterflies played merrily

Unaware of the fright and determination to bring you near.

Terrified you held my aching body, weary and battered,

With a softness attentive to my hurried breath,

Calming warmth that rendered me into a stillness,

Suspended in a God like state I am motionless,

In awe of the simplicity hypocritical to my beliefs,

You held me in your presence in the absence of words,

A veil clothed my earthly cynicism,

In the depths of who you are, I found the depths of me.
