How It Felt

Like a barren field before the spring
Like a frozen tree beginning to bud
Like the cold dark sky clouded over
How could I know how it felt to be loved?

Like a child who's never fallen down
Like a promise that's never been proved
Like the wind in ignorance lonely
How could I know how it felt to be loved?

Like a dream that always slips away
Like a pain that just can't be soothed
Like the star burning high and bright
How could I know how it felt to be loved?

Like a heart whose scars run so deep
Like a prisoner whose chains are removed
Like the music the moon sings so sweetly
How could I know how it felt to be loved?

Until there was you, until you showed me
How could I know how it felt to be loved?
Written in character for a D&D campaign. A woman orphaned, imprisoned and freed, and loved beyond belief of her worth.
