behind my heart
lodged full in my throat
thoughts, feelings, emotions and words...
swirl and swell like torrents confined
then bursting in tears and gasps and wonder
into the waiting, loving arms of your patient embrace
the joys, the sorrows, the fears and the hopes
of change, effected and on the horizon,
you take it in - you love me still
your faithfulness, beauty and strength
leave me in dumbstruck awe
