Fiyero: A Love Letter


odd, quirky... naive some may think, but to me you're wonderful

your smile rights any wrongs you've made, and your sweet nature comforts me in a way I've never felt before
you step on the scale and grimace at the number but don't let that dictate your mood and consume your dreams
you're beautiful to me
your arms strong enough to pull me back from every ledge I encounter
your chest soft enough to provide a pillow for the night, yet tough enough to house your heart
your heart...
so pure, honest, vulnerable, and caring
some days you'll have to beat mine for me as well but you always manage as you cradle me in your arms until your coos and gentle sway lull me into a peaceful place
to be honest, I don't care how long we are together
I'll remember how you've begun to help me shape my life during my recovery
slowly and deliberately as if pulling clay on a wheel, building my walls stronger and stronger
you know a more wealthy lifestyle than I have ever known, but never forget it was your caress and kiss beneath the stars that started it all when we began our journey together
I love you, my dear Fiyero
