Laura

What have you done?

My life was figured out,
All neatly tucked in at the corners

With no loose ends,

And no stray threads,

All sewed up.

I knew exactly who I was,

What I liked

And who I would spend my life with.

Now I must examine myself.

With only a smile and

A warm hand in mine,

You have toppled my world

And shaken me

To my very foundation.

And you don't even know it.

You may never know

Because I may never have enough

Courage to tell you.

What have you done?

Love doesn't ask permission to enter.

It slips in under the door,

Around the corner,

Or through the open window

Left raised by loneliness

It comes like a daydream

Finally realized,

Or a fairy tale

So familiar since childhood.

What did you do?

I suspect that you have just been you

And that is your transgression.
