To Know Love

When you wrote to me
In your handwritten letter
I thought I'd arrived in a place surreal
One that could not be better
I worried over the cause
The reason of why you wrote it
My failures are legion, my life is failure
I am a fool, and all know it
My soul seemed emptied
I know your love could fill me
I worry over all of my failures
Knowing my lost sanity
My world is made of straw
But hunger inside me gnaws
I'll trust your instincts
Even if mine are flawed
Thank you for your letter
It means so much
It took my heart and restored it
By your generous touch
I know now, that I know love
