[Poem] Survivors

We were wet, huddled together for warmth,
both yearning to be next to a blazing fire.
But we had each other
Until I let go.

Time doesn't heal wounds.
Only love can heal pain.
I may not have gone through abuse
as you have,
but I ran through rain.

So, I needed too what you needed from me
and I gave what I had, though we needed more.
I looked in you, but
I saw myself and I turned away.
