You tamed me.
I did not ask for it
-nor seek it.
I did not know it would happen.
Early I shied away from
your professions of love.
I feared it.
But time and space and your
patience turned me around.
In the years since-you tamed me.
Bit by bit I-the flighty filly
was won over.
First I tested.
Then I began to trust,
to be gentled.
You tamed me.
I began to learn of give and take,
of communication.
And finally of love.
And while I was still seeking
to understand me, us, and
real love,
You left me
Tamed.
