When I pictured you
I pictured knotted strings
And caved in hills that formed dark cages in the middle of nowhere
I saw in you blacked out chimneys with no room for air
Fenced surroundings isolated from intimacy, fun or laughter
I saw dry lands and un-watered gardens, dying, panting for life
In picturing you I pictured deep dark hidden secret places
Types of places brave adventurers would explore but even the most bold doubted before
I pictured shadows of what was and saw what is overshadowed by the pains and secrecy of yesterday
Now I see open buds in your eyes
I see deserts damped by rain from the skies
I see fields ready for harvest
Eagles about to leave their nest ready to take flight for the very first time
I see horizons of golden landscape
Landmarks of hope and restoration
I see secret places longing to be discovered because the beauty they posses are yet to be explored
I hear rivers of joy in every speech and word that flows from your tongue
All this I now see because I am finally free from the darkness that bounded me and I am free to see past the mess and see the beauty that's been inside you all along
