Heralded Light

My heart has been handed to you.
I never want you to return it too.
Came as such a massive shock.
How could I prepare for you to enter what I had forgot?
Elevate me to a whole new level.
Leave me warmed rather than a cold hearted devil.
Languishing in a solitary state.
Empty and without a heart rate.

Mesmerised by the possibilities.
Amazed that maybe I could feel.
Rather than hide away like I have.
Insistent that I should be solo.
Expecting nothing but to be hollow.

Turned around by just the thought of you.
Hope reborn from the darkness I knew.
Opened my arms to welcome as a friend.
Rejoiced when I was ushered in.
Now that is all like a distant memory.
Enjoyment has been returned so completely.
