Appreciation Poem: You Saved Me

My loneliness

Was an unquenchable thirst,

And cup after cup

You brought your love to me.

These parched lips,

Could not crack a smile,

And barely opened,

As you poured in your joy.

I was lost to the world.

Trapped in a barren wasteland,

Scarred by the blades of pain.

But you brought me back,

At first

I could not open my eyes.

The rays of sunshine

Were too blinding.

But I heard your voice,

And I could not deny,

The tenderness,

In your words.

So I opened them,

My God you were beautiful,

I thought I had died,

And gone to heaven.

But then you touched me,

And the electricity of your hands,

Made me realize,

I was very much alive.

You saved me,

And a million “I love Yous”

Could never express,

The love I have for you in my heart.

But I will say those “I love yous”,

And a million more

Till you feel it in your soul,

Just how much I appreciate you.
