Together

Fear slowly envelops me.

I used to ignore it;

pretend it does not exist.

But you are here,

reminding me, I am ok.

My fear is mine to admit or ignore.

I look at you and feel your touch.

My breathing slows.

I focus on your words;

I feel your touch.

Your love and caring brighten my life.

And the fear ebbs.

We walk together in sunshine, smiling.

Twinkles of love in our eyes.
