"The writer must believe that what he is doing is the most important thing in the world. And he must hold to this illusion even when he knows it is not true."

-John Steinbeck


You know all my secrets now
You've dealt with my every flaw
But even that has still not deterred you
from caring and loving it all.

You knew I was broken
You discovered all my pain
You saw through my masks and smiles
And made me okay again.

The wind had whispered around us as we stood there, hand in hand,
Tears ran down my cheeks and I felt it difficult to stand.
You pulled up all my sleeves and kissed on all my scars,
You told me I was beautiful, and we would be forever like the stars.

I still believe this now, with all of my whole heart,
I still believe that you and I are indeed a work of art.
That you and I are meant to be
And hopefully, you too, do see
That you've saved me from myself
That without you I'd be hell
I hope you know how loved you are
And wherever you go, no matter how far,
I will always be waiting for you.

This was written before his true colours were shown. When I thought I was loved dearly by a man I thought of as my soulmate. But he was always just a little boy after all.
