For Her / If Not For Her
For her, for knowing her,
I am more than I was.
She awakened a soul
long in slumber.
Lit the pathway back
from the darkness that was my exile.
In times of grief or trouble
she finds the way to lift me up.
Her smile, her laugh, her voice
conjure contentment long lost.
Her gentle nature is a balefire
of the vanishing good in the world.
Forever unable to say the words
I hope she's known.
I am less than.
If not for her.
