A different kind of love

A different kind of love,
a different kind of safety,
a different kind of feeling and protection
of my broken heart.
A different kind of knowledge of my ways and who I am,
a different vision of my deepest self.
I’ve never been so grateful and I’ve never felt so loved.
I never really knew someone so well that I could trust them.
You made me change in ways I never had imagined
by rescuing me from myself a thousand times.
You made me realize the things that mattered,
you brought to me a gate of light
then took my hand and walked me through it.
I love you for the way you smile, mysteriously but sincere.
I love you for the way when I’m with you these flowers grow
in places where I used to let just shadows dance.
I love you for your patience and your help and for the way you simply are.
I love you for the way you soothe my aching heart.
A different kind of love is what I feel for you.
A love I’ve never felt before.
A love that’s good for me and not just hurtful.
A love that finally could last.
My handsome knight, my savior and my beyond imagination.
My truth in these deceitful times.
My promise is to you – I will not let you down,
As long as you can have me by your side, I’ll be there.
