Invited

And when I leave myself behind

You wait for me

An anchor in a stormy sea

When I forget to take a chance

You hand one over

Adding fuel to the motor

When I can’t remember who I am

You lead me to a mirror

Wiping away tears to make it clearer

I fear her

That imposter

I didn’t add her to the roster

But when I’m with you

I always feel invited

With splendid lenses I’m not so farsighted

And for that

I am forever grateful

Your love is healing, never painful
