Foundation

Her eyes are brighter yet softened,
   her tender smile has returned.
Her feelings are still kept in,
   from all the pain she has had to learn.
Her beauty is pure and natural,
   her wisdom is rather rare.
She insists to be self conscious,
   but no longer ignores the stares.
Her personality is so magnetic,
   her energy affecting everyone,
she is finally making an effort,
   when I thought she'd forever run.
Her is the she of my interests,
   she is the her of my heart.
We've built a wonderful friendship,
   as a base for the love affair we start...
