A long and heavy curtain A ray of light from a little gap I had control of my emotions Like switching on and off a tap. As the curtain opened wider Amongst the darkness I saw a face A smiling face that really glowed So warm in this cold place. As I edged out from my curtain I watched someone appear It was a lady who had a look A warmth I felt no fear. We have been to different places That took a risk to go But I felt safe from the start Even though I started off quiet slow. With small steps I could feel As I showered with each emotion It would be so much easier though If there was some soothing magic potion. We are at that place that made my throat go numb I am scared I have to say But I know the glow that you hold Will help me find my way. There isn’t really much I can say That you don’t already know But thank you for working with me With help, I know that I can grow.
Reason for writing:
I was inspired by a someone who Im able to trust, a person who is warm, caring, understanding, supportive, kind, genuine the list could go on. Someone who held out there hand and helped me feel safe, a lady who I owe many thanks to. Thank you Caz.
