Gave Your Heart

you are
my words
and leave
me speechless
the air
I consume
that leaves
me breathless
I found
your strength
and you
became
my weakness
then gave
your heart
and taught
me faith

This is so special, Helen...
I am privileged to be the first to notice it.

In my case, he taught it to me AGAIN. Still this poem captures the ways I've been feeling lately. I love this.

I will not bend to the cowardice of a silent judgement.
