those few words
spoken with honesty
Concealed
behind the words—
your quiet innocence,
the softer side of you
Like a Picasso sketch—
raw in its simplicity,
hidden beneath
your mature self
Your gentle enquiry
about my curiosity for you
Revealed something
within myself—
it opened a door
within my guarded heart
I saw my other side—
shrouded by my own walls
Together we began
a new chapter
in our story
