    Your sadness sparked my interest My only goal was to make you smile Our lives were each their own chaos But our love was in destiny's hands Conversations about life's turmoils Slowly blossoming into a friendship Taking turns supporting one another Helping each other to find their smile Trust and commitment built slowly One brick at a time we began to craft A trust that could endure life's trials Could finding love make us whole again? Seeing your face for the very first time Was a feeling I will remember forever Suddenly butterflies filled my insides I knew instantly you were all I needed Giving myself to you was my challenge I was so broken the damage was visible Wearing my pain just like a suit of armor Desperate to protect my heart from hurt You swore your intentions were pure I could feel myself finally letting go Letting you past the armor I had built Trying not to question if I was worthy The airport terminal was our first real kiss That kiss was a perfect moment in time Marking the next phase of our love story Kissing you awoke something inside me Yet I was still holding back because of fear Knowing that you could shatter my heart I wanted badly to give my entire self to you Waiting until I found the perfect moment I still remember the exact moment I let go Finally ...
    ... trusting as I fell completely in love That you would be there with arms open Catching me every time I needed you to Taking my hand you led me to the shower Patiently getting the water just perfect You took me into your arms embracing me Kissing me so deeply that my heart raced One shower changed everything for me A simple moment when time stood still My senses aware of every beautiful detail I knew I would never forget that shower We had stepped into the shower as two But somehow under the flow of hot water I surrendered that moment, I finally let go In the steam and hot water we became one Your soapy hands caressed my entire body As if metaphorically washing away my past I could feel myself shedding my heart's armor As you washed my body I became all yours Our past molds us into who we have become But it doesn't have to define our entire future One shower alone didn't make me yours forever But it was the moment I chose to truly let go Hot water running over our naked bodies Your hands exploring every crevice of me Claiming what would become yours while Washing away all the wrongs of the past I will never be who I was before that shower For your love has forever changed my future Although you don't choose the perfect moment It's your choice if you let it wash away your pain
