And then

It happened

To one

I love

A word

A color

Which defined

Him he

Was tender

And I

Poked him

There and

He bled

And while

I scooped

Up what

He had

Lost and

Tried to

Replace it

I knew

Then that

He’d never

Be the

Same and

His blood

Was on

My hands

And off

Came the

Guards and

With a

Push you

Rode and

Fell blood

And bruises

But again

You tried

And then

It came

And you

Flew beyond

Me but

Always returned

And then

You found

A key

Upon which

You wished

You tried

Every lock

In every

Town in

The kingdom

It didn’t

Fit nor

Did it

Turn but

A key

Must unlock

Something you

Thought and

Then you

Found me

When a

Burden becomes

Unbearable ask

For help

For a

Heavy load

Is lighter

For each

When carried

By two

When I

Discovered you

I didn’t

See but

Felt you

Hidden beneath

Stone and

Knew right

Then that

You are

Far too

Rare a

Gem to

Remain buried

Inside of

A mountain
