Once Hidden In the Dark

Once hidden in the dark. Hidden in the dark, I look at my once broken heart and see the patterns of the tiny cracks, starting to heal over. As I move to my eyes, I see no more tears or a constant mist… Well, only tears of joy when I see you. As I look out of their windows, to the outside world, I see the beautiful roses you have sent to me. I smell their gentle scent, they have an aroma of a summer garden at dusk. I use my hands to touch each soft silky petal, ‘Slowly,’ I feel each ripple and it gives my goosebumps as I touch my lips with them, then I hear the door open and I know you are here and I am bathed in warmth and see only sunlight.
