Every Drop

When I said the last words to you.

I gave the biggest drop I could to you.

All the healing you gave to me.

I gave to you.

Every word I write 

Every letter I send 

Is my drop to you.

I bet you didn't know you were healing me.

I didn't know every smile we shared was a drop to my heart.

I knew you were healing my heart.

But I didn't realize every smile we shared.

Every touch we had.

Was helping me heal my wounds.

You were sewing my wounds. 

Stitch by stitch.

The pieces of my heart that shattered. 

The heart that once beat on it's own. 

Was beating again because of you. 

I was alive again because of you.

Every heart beat was because of you.

When we hugged I felt complete.

Every act of kindness was a reminder of who I wanted to be.

Thank you for fixing me.

You were his broken vase, he was your glue. No, wait. That makes you sound like a craft project. Let me try again. You were a ripped blanket, and he was your needle and thread? Hmmm..... don't like the sound of that one....too long. (sigh) I just know I'll wake up in the middle of the night and think of the perfect metaphor, then forget it in the morning. ;)

Well when I met this guy he didn't know my past and what I had just gone through. So We met at the right time :)

I guess there is such a thing as perfect timing, though my timing is always off

[Aly]

His timing was right. We have a long story. :) But you know...he's perfect

[C.C. Marx]

AHHHH you lucky girl!!! All c.c. has is her couch and its been moody lately, I'm officially jealous

[Aly]

Don't be too much. Haha. We're not together. It's a little complicated. And a long story.

minor error: I believe "hear" from the fourth line to the last is meant as heart. small detail that could be fixed.

Anyways, a good write. Thank you.
