Shattered.
Lost; ruined...
Broken.
Incomplete.
That was me.
Striking.
Charmed; strong...
Full of life.
That was you.
You came along,
Suddenly life is beautiful.
Slowly, carefully
You picked up
The broken pieces of me
I am whole again…
Unnoticed, I embraced life.
I stand proud and firm,
Strong again…
Because of you.
You make me feel wanted,
Needed...
Desired...
Loved...
But was it really love
That I see through your eyes?
That I felt by the burning passion
You and I shared…?
The ghosts and the guilt
The mistakes and the pains
The misery of the past
Won’t just fall away…
But I have lost control
In the midst
Of beauty and madness...
Scared, still,
But take me along…
Only fate knows
What lies ahead,
But I’ll take the risk
I swear to be strong
Because of you…
Because I love you…

Once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you've never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many disappointments life has thrown at you. I feel so blessed to find that someone. This was written on October 11, 2005 for my then boyfriend, now my lawful husband for 7 years. I just want to share it to everyone. :)
