Day after day you stay. Here with me. Here for me. It’s not easy to accept that someone like me, can be loved by the amazing you.

I make it difficult. I make mistakes. I can be cold. I can be raw. Unpredictable. Horrible. Through it all, all of it, you remain.

You must love me. There’s no other explanation. It’s unconditional. There’s no other explanation.

Your capacity for love seems to be endless. There’s no other explanation for how you can remain and stay and even enjoy each night I put you through.

It sounds like I don’t appreciate you and I truly do. I persevere through fear and guilt and doubts. So many challenges getting past my own self-destructive defenses. I know, I know. I know, it’s all because you are so easy to love and I want to love.

You’re a princess willing to kiss an ugly frog.
