I watched as you tore me apart,
then watched as you fell apart,
and not once did I hesitate to put you
first.
All those hurtful comments,
the mocking faces and waving hands,
it didn’t matter the moment I saw you were in
pain.
I pulled you into my arms,
I held you as tight as I could,
I wiped away your tears and showed you
love.
And I still love you in ways unimaginable,
at levels otherwise unobtainable,
but it’d be a lie if I said it’s not a love that’s
guarded.
I just need some time,
some reassurance,
some better days to get back to us before
Madison.
