Buried deep within the soul...
softly beat my hidden heart.
cowered in the darkness of the corner,
shunning even the lightest touch.

A rose blackened by the pain and hurt of life
without love ..... without tenderness.......
wilted to the blackness of pain,
cold and dank......... where was the light?

A single drop of love did fall..
the tear released from your silken cheek.
That salty touch that came from the corner or your eye,
fell softly at my feet.

A rainbow danced quietly upon the crown of that teardrop,
as it slowly slid to the corner where my long lost heart lay.
Trembling, afraid.... I slowly reached out .....
and you shivered.

So afraid.. so scared.. I saw that you were crying so hard.
I touched you ... just ever so lightly......
and you thrust your arms around me...... so scared.
then it was me who shivered in such fear.

As your teardrops fell softly upon my shoulder...
I felt the pain ... the hurt .. the loneliness,
and my self imposed isolation seemed so foolish.
There is love........ and it is real.

Slowly.... the moisture from our tears......
seeps quietly to our souls.......
and then, without a word....
a single ray of sunlight touches the petals of the heart.

Let the rose reach upward.....
and let the heavens nurture the beauty of innocence
brushing back the ugliness of the past.
let the rose bloom again..............................
