You inspire me. To be a better person, a better man, to get back into my roots as a writer. For the first time in a long time I care about someone else more than I do myself and I forgot how good it can feel. I know life isn't what you expected it to be, trust me it isn't what I stay awake at night hoping for either. Since I met you though I do have to say I hate it less than I have in a long time. I made you a promise and for the first time I have made one in years I know I am going to keep it. You have affected me in a way that I never thought possible in a matter of weeks. I am not someone who believes a whole lot in faith or that things will happen when the time is right. I do have to believe though that there may have been no better time for our lives to collide. We both seem to be at a low point and neither of us really know how we are going to get out of it. At least now though we get to help each other. I want to be there for you. Not in a way other guys seem to say they are. I want to actually be there. I want to do what it takes to make you smile and make you have faith in things not being as bad as they seem on the surface. In less than a month I have been able to create four new pieces of writing I have not been able to do that since school. This whole thing may be complicated and confusing. People come and people go taking parts of us with them. Not always is that a bad thing though. Sometimes they take parts of us that were poisonous to us. Parts that were killing us slowly from the inside out that we never knew about. Leaving us a new spot for the next person to help bring out a good spot we never knew of. Promises I completely intend to keep are still a new thing to me but trust me when I say that I swear on everything I am that I am in this for the long run. I will give whatever I can to help you through the tough times and I will do anything I possibly can to make sure you get a smile as often as possible. We both have a long way to go before we reach a place of stability and total bliss but I am beyond how glad I could explain that I have you in my life to take the journey along side
