there you were, so sweet and able

you held me
while we shared our secrets
and crossed bodies of water
you held me
when we celebrated our fortune
and when we stood in the parlor of our losses
you held me
when I realized you were the only one who knew me
and I wondered if I was worthy of knowing you
and you never held that against me
instead
you asked for my hands
and held them
by your side and against your heart
you hold them still
