Reborn

Today, you opened the door.
you came inside, and you sat down next to me.
You told me that you would have forgiven me no matter what,
and that you will love me forever.

I told you that all my effort was wasted.

But now, I realise that it was not wasted at all.
What I did made me forgive myself,
so I could accept forgiveness from you.

And so, for what seemed like forever, I cried on your shoulder, and you cried on mine.

The tears washed away all doubt,

and now I know that we were born to be together,
we were meant to be,
this was the only way I would have it.


Hand in hand, we walked through the door, and the room disappeared from within me.
The observer is gone, I am real once more.
and I will love you,
Forever and back.
