Spring Cleaning

There is this dark corner within my heart that’s been covered in cob webs and dust for quite some time now and here you come with a dust buster ready to clear away all these things that have held me down for far too long. You’re peeling the spider webs away from my wings, you’re cleaning the dust out of my eyes and you’re doing all that you can to steady me so that I may fly again; so that I may not only survive but also thrive again.
And all I can think to myself is, where have you been all of this time? I needed you. Where have you been? And then…I remember my own journey and I imagine yours and I understand why it took so long. So, I simply say instead, “it’s about damn time you found me.”
