enough

As you wrote your lovely words, 

I was beyond confounded by their power

Over me. This muse has deferred 

The time, until I sleep, on which to shower

Me with dreams of love and peace

Where he whom I have yet to meet

Laugh and talk and become friends.

All of which unavoidably sends

Me in a wishful state of memory,

Wanting companionship divine

Knowing the time is not arrived.

Yet yearning for it desperately

--slippery--

Out of my grasp for now.

As I wake, the lasting wisps of your 

Enchanting grace wash out

The cobwebs of my lingering fears. 

I am enlivened and unafraid,

Ready for all that comes today.

My darling muse of a friend,

I owe you to no end

For wiping away even unshed tears,

Showing me I am enough, 

That I deserve everything, and more.
