Your Kindness

Your kindness is a cocaine Pumps my blood Numbs the Pain Your soul it is a salve Rub it on my heart Heal the scars Your tenderness is a tether Pulls me up When I'm feeling stuck Your trust it is an anchor Tied to your breast Where I find my rest Ain't it something how They say people change Except for those of us that stay the same You can't cure grief Not with guilt and shame Except for those of us that share the pain If I taste you once Will it be enough? Your love it is a liquor Fills my cup Leaves me drunk Your spirit is a savior A safe harbor Moved by grace Your touch it is a tattoo Burns my skin And I never forget Your memory is an ember Cauterizes all Of my regrets Ain't it something how They say people change Except for those of us that stay the same You can't cure grief Not with guilt and shame Except for those of us that share the pain If I taste you once Will it be enough?
