Everything was done,
The moment our eyes met.
Those eyes of yours,
Swallowed me entirely.
You knew,
I saw it in the way you looked at me.
I didn’t know why I was so drawn to you,
Maybe it was because I didn’t know someone like you existed,
I didn’t know someone like you could be real.
You were strong, but quiet.
You opened my door,
When I had locked it completely shut.
I was broken,
With no hope of being whole again.
Who would ever see the beauty behind my pain?
I pushed away anything that came close to me.
I became a storm no one could survive through,
Everything around me drowned.
But it wasn’t enough; it was never enough.
To keep you away.
You looked past the heartache that made me this way.
When I thought it was the end, you showed me the beginning.
There was so much I wanted to say to you,
But I said even less.
I felt so much,
But fell completely silent.
I was without words
When I thought I was all out of chances,
You gave me one.
I didn’t know how I much I needed you,
Until the day I met you.
I couldn’t promise you it would be easy,
But I promised you this…
Love. It was all I had.
I hope I can spent the rest of my life repaying you,
Knowing it will never be enough.
I hope I can tell you everyday,
How much I love you.
I hope you let me.
