Can you please take me to the tree?
Fallen, broken, perfect for me.


Where I looked into your eyes
                        and gained understanding
Your arm protecting me against
                        cold and rain

Your protective stance kept me safe from harm,
We sat cheek to cheek in a created calm.


You asked me plainly about
                      my treacherous past
I knew I felt safe with you
                      and told you my story

The three hours followed and the rain fell down
As time past, I dreaded the walk back to town.


We stood close together facing
                        your nerves were shown
I smiled, my arms around your neck
                        staring in your eyes

You dropped your head, I lifted it up
To keep my brave plan
I lent in... to give... to receive...
                                    a kiss.

Everything changed
My rhythms stopped
All I saw was you,
And the pain... a mystery.

Can you please take me back to the tree?
Fallen, broken,
              ...perfect for me.
This poem is based on my first date with my long term boyfriend, ~SalvationSeeker last year, on Christmas Eve.
Happy 7 Months my love :3
