a poem i wrote (not my matrix peice)

i'm not afraid.
not anymore.
that day we lay in your bed
you said, "are you okay?"
yes .
"are you sure?" you said, stroking the side of my face.
yes.
"would you tell me if you weren't?" you ask me, holding under my chin.
yes.
"you know i love you right?"
(i heard it so many times before, but then, at that moment,it meant so much)
a tear escaped my eye
stopping above my lip.
you kiss it away.
i love you too.
i'm not afraid anymore.
everything fell right into place,
i found everything i needed right there,
in that moment, when i knew that
we were so much more
you and i, we fit side by side.
i'm captivated.
i've found you.
