Heart-Words

So I won't start out this poem with "I"
because, it seems, I always do.
And now, in fact, there's greater things
cause you have me, and I have you.
When all the world is dark and calm
and souls at sleep for nightimes rest
I find my mind can't ever sleep
and that my heart beats from my chest.
With every word you utter soft
the world turns longer in my life.
My heart beats brighter, freer, lighter,
unshackled from it's remembered strife.
If the wind were to hear my whispers
and carry on, like whispers do;
Then you'd hear me every evening
whispering my love to you.
I've learned in time I'm not just minutes,
or moments or miles. I'm really much more.
But dear, you are an angel, with a heart thats been sleeping
and I'll help you wake up off the floor.
And if you fall, I'll catch you first
just so you don't have to hurt at all.
I'll help you over every mountain,
and find a way through every wall.
Your hearts been lost but I am finding
so much grace in finding you.
Love, don't be worried, I'm here to catch you,
to guide you close
and help you through.
