One Year Together

One Year Together

We have had one year together

Growing toward one another

Expanding our horizons

Learning about each other

Gradually gaining knowledge

Becoming better acquainted

Chatting late into the night

Sleepless nights no longer spent alone

I had spiraled deep inside

Helping you coaxed me out

Learning to trust each other

I couldn’t accept help from you

I was more comfortable helping you

Letting go wasn’t easy

Switching with you was delicious

You were so patient

You were shown bright slivers

You started collecting them

Carefully handling them

You didn’t walk away

You had numerous opportunities

I was rewarded with your loving friendship.
