Hey babe, can you hear me?!?
You CAN hear me...
I know this, for you finish my every thought.
I say not a word.
No looks are exchanged.
But somehow you know.
How do you know?!?
When I need you so bad, and in you come running...
Red cape and all.
Like I wished for you and you came true.
Who are you?
I glance behind me, I look above.
Where'd you come from?
What did I do to deserve you?
I was so convinced I wasn't worth the time of day.
If only you knew what "she" used to always say.
Then you came out from nowhere and stood in front of me.
And I struggle to find the words to explain.
It's just you.
My anything and everything.
You see not what you are,
I see ALL that you are.
So hun, can you hear THEM?!?
As they watch us and smile.
Their only thoughts being, "It's about bloody time"
Ya think?
Who knew?
The wait was torture...
But worth it!
Cuz I am not afraid to open my eyes,
For I know what I have to look forward to everytime I do.
I know now, I no longer need to hide.
And even if I tried...You shine so bright in my world that it couldn't be possible.
I used to always duck and run away.
Tell me why every time I tried, you pulled me in closer?!?
A grip at the back of my neck and a firm voice, "Stay Put!"
"Well, okie dokie then", You received in reply.
For once I listened, I wasn't scared and sat my ass down next to you.
So these days and weeks, will turn into months and years.
Through it all, they'll watch us and see...
See that we are right where they left us,
Under that sofa, watching and observing...
Difference is, this time we're together!!
Hugs again

You know why it has taken me so long to reply to this poem. I'm glad you have realised you are worth it, that some people will see your true value if you just let them in. I'm glad you're not afraid, and I am glad you don't hide from me.
You ARE worth it Minx, and I'm so lucky that you let me close enough to find that out. You give so much back to me. You make me smile and laugh, you help me to believe in myself. We have had some tough times already but we're still there, still strong... and yes... the difference is that this time we are together!
