Then and Now

Once my heart knew not the light.
Once my heart knew not the bliss.
Endless hours, sulking weeping.
Endless nights, dreaming, wishing.
All this has changed,
The former I know not.
With but the touch of your hand,
I felt myself grow.
Not just in heart,
But mind and soul.
Nights are filled with love and warmth.
Hours go by so swift and bright.
Now my heart knows endless bliss.
Now my heart knows the warmth of light.
