I gave you the love of a young heart
Love that was new to me
And untested
Love that was fragile
and shining
like the first glimmers of dawn
on a dew wet rose
like shimmering beads
of an untouched spider web
and the golden glowing
of an untried day
Radiant
fresh and shining
I gave you a heart unused to being given
A heart gentle but fearful in the gift
A heart hurt, timid and testing
A heart longing
longing to give
longing to receive
longing to find a home
I gave you the love of a young heart
