A lot of people know the surface
side of me,
the side they see while
I'm working
or just going through
the day..
But there's another side of me ~
an inside~ that people never see.
It's a part that's full of a thousand thoughts ;
a part that embraces love and cherishes friendship,
a part that understands without need for words,
a part that has yearnings
and desires
and prayers.
        
The inside
of me has so many
moods
that the outside never shows.
For once in my life, though...
I trust someone implicitly
and I care about someone in a totally
understanding
way.
I feel like it's
okay to let
that someone in,
to let them see me emotionally
and physically
as naturally and as naked as I can be.
I have given myself to you
and told you
things that
I've never
told another
soul....
You are the one person who has seen me
trembling and as fearful as an injured bird ;
you are the one person I always want
to take with me when I feel
exhilarated
and my spirits
are
soaring.
I trust you with
my secrets,
and you now know that
you can trust me with yours.
This sharing....this special sharing...
is one of the nicest
dimensions
my life
has
ever known.
