You are my very existence. You hold my beating, throbbing, mangled heart in your hands. I am in constant awareness of your absence when your body is not with mine. I ache for your touch I hold my breathe between the moments of communication between us You are my breathe You are my eternity, you are my dreams and wishes You represent everything good in this world to me. I know at times I get lost in my own head, my thoughts seem to gravitate to the worst possible conclusion of every issue. I know I can be short, and seem cruel or unfeeling My greatest weakness is not thinking before I speak But my greatest strength is having you to understand me and love me anyway. You give me a power unlike anything I have ever felt The ability to not apologize for being me, the removal of expectation, the freedom and support to follow my heart. Knowing you are standing beside me, makes me invincible, immortal For every characteristic I lack you possess For every attribute I fail to express, you are there to show me how My teacher, my protector, my lover, my best friend, my confidant, my heart, my soulmate, my fate, my faith, my hope, my partner.
