Love Is Found In the Cracks

When you meet someone
That can look into your soul,
Reworking you into 
A window clear enough
To feel terrified-
This is love

When they know exactly
Where to find the cracks
In the glass
And take the time
To trace each one
With gentle
Fingertips...
That feeling
Of wanting
To laugh and cry
As the whole world
Shines and shatters
In the same moment-
This is true love
