To give and take
She hid behind a pillar,
Concealed from the worlds view,
Refusing to be seen,
By nearly all but a few.
I opened my arms wide,
Beckoning for her to come,
Smiling whole heartedly,
Assuring her she was the one.
She peeked from behind,
Revealing her dark beautiful eyes,
Hesitant to take a step forward,
Unable to know truth from lies.
I softly whispered a secret,
So only she could hear,
That I would hold her close,
Promising she had nothing to fear.
I have failed to place,
What convinced her so,
My display of willingness,
Or her curiosity to know.
But she ran forward with eagerness,
Gripping me tightly like never before,
Leaving us both content with the thought,
We had received what we asked for.
