Charis


I love you
for the way you see me
the way you have others see me
not as I see myself
ordinary
mundane 
normal
but as a goddess
an inspiration
of word
space and time
which I may become
if you only
continue
to believe
in me

Thanks to The Mag

Oh, that's lovely. And from what I have read, probably pretty close to what she really thought.

True love is reciprocal.

We have a hard time seeing our own potential, don't we? Lovely poem!
