hands

by Emily Sullivan

i was lost wandering alone
along the darkened alleys
tripping over broken promises

i was bruised and battered
sinking downward into darkness
suffocating under liars and thieves

when you came to me in a dream

pulling me out of the reckage
and delicately placing my heart
safe inside your hands

It's heaven to be saved
