New To You

You pick up my pieces, carry me along.

Sooth-stroke my aching heart, reminding me where I belong.

You see my light shining; knowing I am all right,

Believe in me, for me, my gilded, guiding light.

Drape tendril-tender wrappings, dab-dry my tears,

Hush, hushing trembling lips, you balm back my fears.

Enlightening my darkness, shush-singing my song,

Shore me, enfold me, remind me I belong.

Endlessly patient, you listen-whisper tenderly,

Shape me, melt-mould me, treasure me eternally.

You see my light shining, you light up my way,

You know its all right that I am safe, all is ok,

So believe in me, for me, rock me tender tight

Till the dawn darling day when I unveil my own precious light.
