Continuation of The Power of Love I
My Love was a force.
A light in my darkness.
When we met, I was in a dark place
and headed down an even darker path.
He was bold, confident,
charismatic, humble, and
unlike anyone I had ever met.
We had an instant connection.
As I alluded to in my post Out Loud,
he had certain tastes that I had
never encountered.
However, slowly and lovingly
he gained my love
and my trust.
He promised to cherish, love,
protect, and respect
me. Me?
Whom I deemed unlovable…
because I was broken and I knew it.
He promised never to demean me.
He promised never to withhold
support and affection.
He promised love and safety
in his presence.
He made good on those promises
and many more.
I was his… forever
we were one.
Because he promised to put
my best interests
foremost over his own
he gave up the lifestyle –
when it became too much
for my well-being.
I had never experienced
deeper, truer,
unconditional love
with a man.
My Love loved me
where I was,
healed my brokenness,
by teaching me
that I am worthy,
that I am strong,
that I am fierce,
that I am beautiful,
inside and out.
His last lesson was
that I can
live
without
him.
I owe him my gratitude
because
he gave me the best of his life
and
I will miss him
for the rest of
mine.
