I stand here
somewhat ashamed
yet I know this will
work out
one way or another
I actually feel
slightly sick
not fully understanding
my own reasons
yet knowing
for some reason
it has to be done.
I cried all morning
while you were with me
you consoled and comforted
with words
of hope and love
I stand here
feeling a glint
rememberance
of you as my knight
who showed me
how to laugh again
and how to take
a compliment
without passing it off
as sweet nothings.
