Held Up

And like a child,
you have lifted me high above,
with both hands.

I am weightless in my search,
finding that my world revolves around you.
My every fear put to ease,
and like a child, I am drawn to you
without a care in the world.

I find that I am much taller,
held up high in your arms,
my heart rising in unconditional love.
There is no fear when you are around.

I have put all my trust in you,
without even realizing what trust is.
Your name grows more meaningful
each time it passes through my lips.

My eyes, wide with anticipation,
stare at you in wonder
the way you pick me up when I am down,
without fear of falling.
