To Love Again

TO LOVE AGAIN

Your hand touches mine,
reaches into my heart
And takes out all the pain
I've held within;;
Your eyes look into my soul
and smile,
It is time, I think,
to love again;

To trust that somewhere
in the world
There is another person
who can open their heart
And, dusting off
all the residue of the past,
To look, bright-eyed,
at a better future;

In you I have found
that I am home once more;
Content in your embrace,
Daydreams and moonbeams
Sparkle once more,
It is time, I know,
And I am ready -
to love again.
