Twisted and broken, like a branch in a storm.
Resisting everything to protect my wounded heart.
Scared, lonely, sad and empty.
No one to love me ever again, not believing in myself.
And then there was you.
When you came to me we became two halves made complete.
The World stopped and Love returned.
You brought me back to a life that could not have been sweeter.
Safe, loved, protected and whole.
That is what I felt with you.
The life that burns twice as bright burns half as long.
And you have burned so very, very brightly.
I heard something like that somewhere long ago.
How was I to know that it would be true?
But I think I always knew that you were just on loan to me.
And now I find myself again
Twisted and broken, like a branch in a storm.
Resisting everything to protect my wounded heart.
Scared, lonely, sad and empty.
No one to love me ever again, not believing in myself.
