He called me beautiful. He called me strong. He examined the scars on my heart and deemed them a worthy part of me. When I learned to stand again, I swore to walk on my own. Now he promises to stand at my side and Go wherever I may go. Build a life with me. What have I done to deserve this? This kindness you offer asks no retribution.

He Saw Me
He called me beautiful. He called me strong. He examined the scars on my heart and deemed them a worthy part of me. When I learned to stand again, I swore to walk on my own. Now he promises to stand at my side and Go wherever I may go. Build a life with me. What have I done to deserve this? This kindness you offer asks no retribution.
