Let the Treasure Return - 6-1-13

Take my hand.

Let me look at you. See you from all vantage points.

Do a little spin and let your dress swirl its colors around.

A small turn and a rush of beauty. Let my hand guide you near me.

You love me. You truly love me.

But yet, I have to work so hard to see a smile. Why can't it come easier? Why can't it be an instant reaction?

Let me hold you close. If I smile enough at you will it eventually be enough to break through the life; the weight of what I have placed on you?

Or has it been so long since you knew deep sourced happiness that the battle will be long and hard fought - yet won - to see it return to you?

It is you I come home to.

Past the thousands of screaming fans that idolize me, but have no desire to remain with my heart - it is you I come home to.

A place of love. Of being searched out in my mind and heart. To a place where I can just be.

To spin you into my arms. To take in the beauty that makes my heart swell. But without my greatest treasure, is all my effort in vain?

Let my love soak in. Know you are secure by my side and just let me take you in.

Soak in my love and let it raise up the smile of a heart returning to unbreakable happiness.

Breathe.

Spin.

Come close.

Smile
