I look at you and see a man that has conquered so much.
A man that fought some demons and won but other demons he merely buried deep enough within him he thought no one would ever be able to sense they were there.
A man that has held a deep capacity to feel his own emotions but always kept them locked within certain limits.
A man who allowed the emotions of others to fully flow through him so that he could help them, no matter the cost to self.
A man that allowed emotions of others to live vicariously so that even though he kept his emotions under such tight lock and key, he still felt that he lived on some level.
A man that understands the full impact of whatever this is between us but most importantly, is strong enough and brave enough to not only embrace it but to embrace me in the same grip so that I am also strong enough.
A man that hides from the entire world and yet makes the world think that they know him.
A man that will live his entire life never being able to see how beautiful he truly is, but will believe it only because the woman he loved insists that it is so.
The woman who, already understands, that her life has forever been changed and altered in such a way that she will finally, at long last, have the safety and security she thought had forever been destroyed when she was just a small child.
The woman who would gladly give her life if that was the only way it could bring happiness to you.
The woman that knows, for the first time ever, that there is truly a reason to have faith in humanity and that reason is something she never believed existed:
A love like ours.
