For years I had sat there,
cushioned on a pile of my insecurities,
worrying at the frayed hem of my rapidly unraveling life,
blinking away the bright light of failure,
wondering if there would ever be an end to the apathy.

And then…

In an empty world,
in a cold universe,
in an uncaring society…

I found something.

Something worth waiting for,
something worth fighting for,
something worth living for,
something worth dying for,

Something worth chasing after,
something worth crying over,
something worth writing about,
something worth… something worth loving.

I found something that made all the insanity
and the misery
and the sleepless nights
worth enduring.

I found love as I’d never known it before,
I found joy as I’d never known it before.

I found a reason to live,
an obsession,
a passion.

When all seemed lost,
a window in Heaven opened,

… And I found you.
