What It Takes

All it took
Was your fond gestures.

All it took
Was a dream
With someone else on my mind
But it shows your face---
All throughout.

All it took
Was a whisper from you,
"Wake up."
Hinting your presence
Not some other's.

It took all three
To shake me.

Is it just me?
Or is it...
That it's you---
---that someone new
Who'll pick up
The broken pieces of me
And open up
My heart
Once again?
