Crashing Down

It happened all of a sudden
I wasn't prepared for it
I had even become comfortable with the status quo
I believed that this was how it was supposed to be
That's the way it is....

But then one day, not so long ago
I felt it.
I felt it immediately...I peered into my soul
And then it happened just like that

I couldn't resist and I found myself knocking on the door
My hand barely touched the pecan wood before I was greeted so kindly
Surprised, I barely could breathe out a soft hello
See I had never felt energy like this before

All my life I searched for a friend who would listen
A friend who would not judge
A friend who would luv unconditionally
A friend who cared

In all my years I never found you...until now
You opened your mouth for the first time and I felt liberated
It was effortless for you
I don't even think you knew

The more you spoke, the more I wanted to stay
The more I saw, the easier it felt
I no longer ask questions
I no longer fear

You take pride in my artistry
You luv my accomplishments
You make me feel free
You make me feel connected

It's never happened to me before
No one ever ovastand

I don't have to hold back anymore
My heart is young again
What a great friend I found in you
Everyday you teach me something new

I feel silly
I feel blessed
I feel happy

Where have you been - but of course, you are probably thinking that about me
I'm ready to float off the edge and into the sea
You inspire me and encourage me to be free
To luv myself
You inspire me to luv you

From the moment you spoke, I felt liberated
All the walls I built up came crashing down
