I've spent so many years searching for the love I could never find in the most obvious places.
The fear & hate that dwelled within me had me afraid to fill my hearts empty spaces.
My heart became bitter, tattered and frayed
with my world crashing down around me, I found my strength an comfort in the cold steel of a blade.
I had fallen to my lowest point, desperate for a fresh start
But every weary step I took led me closer to falling apart.
I couldn't hear the hurt or take away the pain.
so I drained my sorrows from my flesh, nothing to lose MAYBE something to gain.
This kind of destruction couldn't go one forever, there had to be a better way.
desperately clinging to the need for something different if only for a day.
I've held myself together the best that I could but could never conceal my scars
so I layed there broken on the wet concrete an put my faith beyond the stars.
I had given up and finally let go,
hoping there was something left for me this world just failed to show.
Little did I know God was taking his time,
molding someone special just for me, who in time was destined to be mine.
It all started with the very first date
which left me contemplating my future & fate.
My knees felt weak with the simple touch of his hand,
for once my heart melted in the arms of a man.
Still my past had haunted me, so I compulsively guarded what was left of my heart.
As each day we grew closer, with each and every kiss...there was nothing left but my secrets to impart.
Now all of my secrets have been revealed & you love me just the same.
It feels as though you've healed my heart & never once made this broken soul feel any ounce of shame.
Your everything I'm not yet you bring out the very best in me, in each & every way.
Your the reason behind this genuine smile, each & every day.
Your my rock that keeps me stable & grounded
And the way you make me fall in love all over again continuously leaves me astounded
