In the spaces between the lines
I see the precious tenderness
that you keep hidden
beneath the shell of the pain
you cover so well with
playfulness and laughter
the depth of you is unlocked
in the breaking of this shell
and the magic of your heart
to cast a lover's spell
be still, my heart
be strong for this wonderful friend
on whose wonderful beauty
like the sunshine I depend
