Her scars are only reminders of the pain she went through,
the giant black hole she was stuck in for so long, that she never thought she'd get out of.
She never thought that she'd find someone kind enough to grab her hand and pull her up out of the hole and through the dark.
She didn't find anyone,
but someone found her.

He took her hand and looked into her eyes,
wondered how someone so beautiful would ever want to harm themselves.
He was there for her through everything.
He brought her out of the dark, and into the light.
He tought her how to be happy, how to love, and be loved,
He taught her what real love felt like and how to love herself.
He taught her that a mirror masks everything and lies to you.

He is the light that shines through her,
he is her smile and her laugh, and every inch of happiness within her,
he is her life.

He is the only light she has ever known.
