"There is this feeling....."

I have hidden far deep inside of me a feeling.
As a tree, that sends it's roots into the depths of the earth,
grows very large and strong, so too has this feeling.

There was a time when I thought if I let it remain unseen and nameless,
I could enjoy it and yet escape the vulnerability of possible hurt.
But then as a tree requires the warmth of the sun,
life is made from the warmth of a feeling shared.

When I found these words, I grew very warm inside thinking of you.
Meanwhile there is this feeling..........
