Thank You Note

Thank you for
Sitting with me
For reading
Feeling me
For all the countless
Times you tried to
Understand what
My heart was
Trying to say
Feelings so
Hard to convey
All the twisted
Convoluted turns
This journey has
Demanded
You never once
Reprimanded
The back steps
My thoughts
Second guess
The times I regress
You patiently waited
Believing in my
Progress
When tears spill
For reasons I know not
Why
You ask not the questions
I cannot answer
You simply wait with me
For the tide to subside
As my life unraveled and
Fell at my feet
You stood at the door
To my heart
Extending a hand
A soulful prayer
And refused to retreat.
