Open Arms
I touch my lips
A familiar place
where you have been
How strong your
soft kisses were
Breathing life into
the area of my mind
that love had killed
Taking me back to a time
when I welcomed love
Before love murdered
a piece of me
that was alive and free
I feel silly
To have allowed
someone to change who I was
But
I'm so happy now
to have realized
the error of my ways
And at last
I welcome love
with open arms.
