Heaven Sent

Been so broken down, baby Isolated, shuttered, Dilipidated; in disrepair Been so sad and empty Before you, I didn't wanna care I had lost all hope and drive To continue even trying Void of volition Drifting from day to day With no desire - no ambition All that's changed now, sugar Cos from out of nowhere, you've finally arrived To prove you're not going anywhere. Your kindness and concern for my welfare Soothe my tired soul And rejuvenate My sullen spirit Thank you endlessly For patiently and relentlessly Chiseling and chipping away At my recalcitrant heart Gone are the days of Thinking my lot in life won't improve You have resurrected my desire to love You're my richest, sweetest treasure Boon to my existence You must be Heaven sent You're a little late, my honey, But that's OK, my angel, Your untimely arrival Is a much-needed surprise. You're a blessing to my well-being My game-changer; my lifesaver Before I was bitter, sour - on my own I'm savoring your hugs and kisses What we have is priceless You've rekindled my inner glow Promise me, baby, we'll work together to retain what we have found So that we shall never wither away Impenetrable and tightly woven Together, as one, we will grow stronger.
