Thank-you

by Brenda   Mar 5, 2016


"Thank-you for being you"
My love,
you say this often
to me...
You make it
so easy
to just be me
your acceptance of who I am,
of what I'm about,
of how I am,
allows me
to just be me...
So thank-you my love
for giving
so freely
of yourself to me,
to not changing me
or bending me to your will,
this is what
love is all about,
acceptance and tolerance,
not judgement and disdain.
for giving us
the wings to soar
and our souls
the courage to step out
into this harsh world
with no regrets...
Knowing we always
have a safe place
to land...
So, "thank-you my love"
I say again and again
because without you
I couldn't be me...

    Brenda, this is an absolutely beautiful write that I am sorry I missed.
    To me love is painful and hurts like hell all the time but I'm beginning to realise now that it shouldn't be like that and at 27 it sounds so silly that I haven't witnessed this type of love, real love, properly apart from my Mum because she would never change me even in my bad times when I was a stroppy teen lol.

    Love should not change us, control us or define us like many people think it should and here is a true example of this that love lets you be free and be yourself. Alongside acceptance and tolerance love should be honest too.

    I loved this little write and I would like to say thank you for being you too because you are beautiful inside and out and as Michael said one of the sweetest ladies on here and I am glad you now have this kind of love.

    All the best,
    Em
