My Love,
You’ve suffered through some pretty tough situations, but you’re still here.
The past is no longer a threat, and I understand that there may still be wounds and scars – let those be a reminder of how resilient you are to not let them tear you apart.
Though you wept for many nights, you chose to smile.
Though you pleaded to just go away, you fought even harder to stay.
Though you bled out when the swords got too deep, your will to survive built a stronger wall to keep them away.
I know you still want to beat. I know you still want to live.
You’re still just as curious about the world around us and you want to make this life worth living.
You may be scarred, but you are the most beautiful that I’ve ever felt. After all, a life with no scars would be a life with no battle stories to tell our kids, our grandkids, and even our great-grandkids.
And you were given to me for a reason.
I’m sorry if this was not the life you had expected when you were given your physical form, and I’m sorry for not being there for you when you needed me the most, but I’m hearing you now. I’m here for you now and until our very last breath.
I’m sorry that you had to toughen up your armor lately when it comes to one aspect of our life that seem to not have experienced yet, but I understand that we’re both doing this for what we believe is our protection. We’re both scared. I can feel it. But there are still a lot of beautiful things happening all around us that give us more reason to smile and appreciate each day.
My Love,
I am a part of you just as you are a part of me.
I would not have made it this far in life if it wasn’t for you.
Thank you.
