Awakened

Just a while ago, persuasive words with no action would give her goosebumps, sweet nothings and unthoughtful gifts would satisfy her cravings,

the key to her heart was being held hostage by a thief.

But through a process of self-discovery she has grown to listen with her eyes not her ears, and to only trust actions and not words,

to observe behaviors and allow time to be the investigator to see what it will reveal.
