I look at you, and
I only see perfection.
Golden hair I long to touch,
Sapphire eyes I want to
Gaze into for all time, and a
Face that radiates innocence
And strength.... And a heart
Greater than anyone else's in
The world. I think you could be
Heaven's most perfect angel.
You are the uncorrupted light
That pierces my gloom and
Drive all the darkness away.
Truly, you are purity and joy.
Yet when you turn to me
And dare to see me as a human,
I back away, not wanting to hurt
You. I love you too much to
Describe; That's why I do what I
Do.
That's why I once called you
Sunshine.
I look at you, and
I see a wounded man, always
Longing to be "whole". And you
Can't seem to see that you were
Always whole to me. I see not
Your "disfigurement", I see not
Your face and eyes (handsome
And expressive they as they are);
That's only the sliver of the whole
You. I see someone of dignity,
Honor, compassion and bravery.
Someone who deserves the
Greatest love I can offer. You've
Stolen my heart and soul. But you
Can't seem to see that my love for
You is as valid as any can be.
You scurry away, back to the
Shadows of depression and rejection.
You don't know -can't see?- how that
Hurts. Yet I can't ever quell the
hope
That soon, you'll admit your love
for me.
Why?
hat's why I now see you as
Darkness. |
