Your Words... Poem by chantelle ribeiro

Your Words
has left me speechless
Beautiful and honest
I felt my soul rejoice
At last
At last I heard it from your lips
You care...
It has been a long road
to try and break your shell
Sometimes to fight a battle
that left me spent and still
You always shut me out
And now
Now that you see my worth
You weren't afraid to tell
And I am left here smiling
Knowing I have won
It was no losing battle
Our time has just begun
Your heart a precious treasure
has opened up to me
And you friend will never know
Just what that means to me
