Two Equal Parts
Dear "Tried and True",
Thank you for graciously sharing half of your heart with me
For as long as I have feared completely doing the same, you have waited patiently
You taught me that love cannot be achieved through selfishness or greed
That spiritual sustenance comes from, "yours, mine, and ours," rather than, "I, myself, and me"
The first to turn me toward the mirror, and introduce me to my reflection
You ushered in the vulnerability necessary for me to share with you my imperfections
With master key in hand, you unlocked my icy, caged heart
Shortly thereafter, you lit a fire, and melted through even the most frostbitten parts
As difficult as it has been
Who else has done all that you have to make me feel seen?
So I take these two, equal parts
One of your heart, and one of mine
And mend them the best I can
Holding tight, I keep faith that nothing will deter us from destiny's plan
Love,
"The Only One for You"
