when the skies are
too bright
i come to you
and hide
from the sun
cradled close
i can hear
your heart's voice
in my ear
reassuring me
of the love
that's there
and as i close
my eyes in
submission
all the
transgressions
that held me down
fall away
in the sweet counsel
of your embrace
reminding me
over and over
again
that i matter
to at least one
no matter
what is said
i feel no dread
in the warmth of
your arms
(grow)
