you hold a key to a gift to something so rare beyond scope of diamonds rubies or gold money does no good this gift is only for you replacement impossible precious one of a kind fragile a strand of silk endlessly stronger others can wish or pray for seconds or minutes to hold this like you do daily knowing it or nay whether here or gone i am aware of you your presence holding this most delicate gift feathery caress fearing damage be done cannot avoid it all only partially whole broken before you pieces missing though you do not care whole it is in your eyes entire if slightly imperfect feeling contact renewed after years without seeking to remain close to you desiring to continue the barest of caresses you fulfill the desire doing nothing you're there always holding my gift helping sanity remain allowing it freedom never judging offering respite from the storms that rage sheltering arms protect against chaos maybe it is I who received the gift daydreams wishes prayers answered or the gifted are both you and I I sought a friend an angel I received in return I gave freely willingly my cracked armor strong but not without flaws you found a way in merely by looking you saw a gate the key already in your hands so now the gift not just the key lies waiting just inside I was gifted with a friend who I returned the favor by giving you a piece of my heart I held no doubts of giving this to you treat it kindly and with care of this I know you will if ever you wish for more never hesitate to ask I already know that which I received is a beautiful priceless friend whom I adore I feel you may have gotten less from me than what I received in you another prayer that my gift to you be adequate for now that the future grace me the chance that mine to you be closer to what you are to me |
