Un-writing the Lies in My History
Perfect couple, even if we're not perfect people
I am childlike
(Not childish)
He adores me for my spirit
(Not my body)
I am hopeful
(Not blindly optimistic)
He supports my dreams
(Not just the practical ones)
I am entertaining
(Not entertainment)
He laughs at my jokes and funny faces
(Not my wounded past)
I am strong
(Not overbearing)
He stays by my side
(Not only when he wants to)
I am open
(Not an oversharer)
He cries with me
(Not because of me)
I am honest
(Not hurtful)
He enjoys my personality
(Not because he benefits from it)
I am faithful
(Not locked away)
He serves me with love
(Not a slave’s obedience)
I love him
Nothing more, nothing less.
