Vulnerable

by Sarah Ann   Aug 29, 2007


He took me there. Hand in hand,
To that wonderful place
The warmth, excitement, true desire
Was shining on his face
His eyes were like the winter sky
And deeper than the sea.
Oh, honestly in truth I found
They captivated me.

This fallen angel, "mystery"
Looked past my doubts and fears,
With few words of encouragement;
Enthralled me down to tears.

Salted tears of puzzled feelings,
And jumbled thoughts of pain
Were kissed away like water drops
On foggy window panes.

Against my better judgment
I was lost with him, then found
Realizing...Boy, I had it bad.
I needed him around.

Vulnerable, I came to be,
He let me fly beneath his wings

He promised me -
Then butchered me.
But still, I gave up everything.
