Our Hands Poem by Michelle Gabriella Vergottini

You looked away from me
How perfect was it not
I knew I loved you
I thought you forgot
Anguish filled my body
I turned to run away
Your hand found mine
I knew you were here to stay
You took all the sorrow
Showed me how to live
You gave me hopes
You dried my tears
You showed me love
When no one was there
You knew my soul
My sin filled past
The wolves that hound
And bound my heart
A smooth kiss
A loving hand
I knew then you’d understand
So I told you the truth
I should have lied
No one could face the truth inside
I braced myself to be hurt once more
Then you kissed me
I have never loved you more
Acceptance
Forgiveness
Something I lost
You gave my innocents
You gave me trust
I love you still
I always have
Finally I found the one who understands
