My New Strength

There are so many feelings that

you give me. So many things that
I’ve never had or knew was missing.
Right now, at this moment I fell like
I could do anything.

I would run into a brick wall

just to have you hold me and
say “Oh baby, did you fall?”

I would dive, head first, off a

sky scraper and up I would bounce.
To my feet, I would jump, feeling
no pain, not an ounce.

I would run miles

across the hottest desert,
to you, with nothing
to drink.
I know as soon as I kissed
your lips it would quench the thirst
and oh how my
heart would sink.

I would walk slowly

through a blazing fire.
It couldn’t hurt me
cause this strength will never tire.

There is so much I feel like I can

do now, I hope you can understand;
I just feel I can do anything when
your there holding my hand.....
