In this Moment

In that moment

When I could see my life rush past me

I thought of you

And how you make me feel

And smiled at the fact that I had been running from you

Trying to safeguard my heart

When you had been there protecting it

All this time

Trying to show me

What you can and will be to me

…If I just let you

In that moment

When I was trapped

I instantly thought of you

And what I would be leaving behind

If I couldn’t get free

And it brought tears to my eyes

To know I might not ever

Experience all you had to offer me

In that moment

I could clearly see you laughing, joking

And doing that thing you do

That annoys me

And it made me smile

Even in that moment

I was comforted by the thought of you

And was relieved to know that

When I emerged I could run right into your arms

Safe and secure

Unscathed and untouched

Free to surrender completely

To being loved by you

In that moment

I realized what was important

Knowing who holds me dear

And not just who needs me there

But wants me there

In that moment

I learned that I don’t just want you

I need you too

To be the person you keep trying to show me

But I kept running away from

Out of fear

But it was fear that brought me to

This moment

Where I realize that you are what I need

And want

In this moment

I am falling for you

And so glad to have you here in my life

Wanting and needing me too

In this very moment
