in his arms...

looking small and very vulnerable
knees drawn up, bare toes peeping
big dark eyes asking for answers
a sign of hope she kept on searching...

'twas one tear that started the flood
rimmed the lower lashes,misery in a drop
collected at one corner,a fluttey blink
sent it all coursing down her cheeks...

"im sorry", was said gracelessly,
but from the heart, so obviously
anguish broke like summer storm
shaking her shoulders,soaking his shirtfront...

tears were all cried out
she was no longer afraid
and then realization hit her
there's no other place to go......
except in his arms.
