you have brought light into a void filled with darkness. you have brought spring to a land trapped in winter. you have brought warmth into a place that knew only ice. you have brought laughter to one who heard only screams. you have dried a seemingly endless flow of tears.
bright and sudden like the sun breaking through a storm. strong and beautiful as an old willow tree. dazzling as spring's new grass emerging from snow. you mean so much to me.
like the wind that drives away the storm. like the sun that melts the ice. like the touch of a gentle hand. like a knife that has severed despair's ties.
you are all of these and more. my meager words, they give no clue of your beauty and your strenght. know that i will always love you.
this was written for someone who brought hope and happiness at a time when it was least expected.
