I once thought rain was the only weather Id see
Then I met you
pulling your windmill to push the rain from my eyes
I once thought if I attempted to smile or smile too long I would be arrested for
Impersonating happiness
Then I met you
hand extended you presented my pass to get out of my past free card
I once thought if I inhaled one more breath my lungs would collapse
Then I met you
An exhaled
I once thought the color Black was not only my personal darkness but the gloom I wore on the outside
Then I met you
Showing me your Brilliant Blues , Revitalizing Reds, Optimistic Oranges , Passionate Purples your Haze of Harmony
Long gone the days of candy colored Prozac chased by sparkling shots of caramel smooth Padron
in the deepest corner the tiny tiny part of my heart the vein that pumped life into me again,
I kicked out Billy Holidays Good morning heartache
Moved in Jill Scotts I’m living my life like its golden
I heard the saying God doesn’t close a window without opening a door
I just couldn’t fathom that on the other side would stand you
I’m loving you for loving me , inspite of who showed up first
Then is my now …. Now is then my testimony of Love ……
