After months of arguing, making up, bickering, and lusting I closed the book on one of the great loves of my life so far.
Today my eyes overflowed with the frustration of failure
Today the adhesive that bonded you to my heart finally gave way...
You saw me for who I was.
You saw that beneath my outgoing and strong exterior there was a scared, fragile little girl, deprived of confidence and in desperate need of love.
You made me feel beautiful, and comfortable in my own skin.
You taught me that it was all right to be different and march to the beat of my own drum.
You showed me that after years of feeling inadequate and "less than" that I was indeed a strong person, deserving of something more.
I'll never forget your sad eyes, gentle hands, and ridiculous saunter.
...Your quiet confidence encapsulated within a shy, reclusive shell.
Every day with you was a gift
and every fight was a lesson
and for that, I have you say
Thank you.
