To My Lighthouse

I always had the wall up and if anybody tried to see beyond the facade – I’d literally shut down and try to distance myself from them.
you asked about my ‘absent’ father and never was I uncomfortable to share with you my resentment towards him.
it was somewhat a forbidden subject.
the damage of the nonexistent relationship is gradually fading and that’s because of the warmth of your love.
thank you for being understanding – understanding of the baggage that I come with and so forth. and what we have here? this is special.
the first love note i ever gave you? all those tears of joy? this is just me constantly reminding you of how much of a queen; lighthouse you are.
my heart will always be your place of reassurance. my arms will always be your place of comfort. and my mind? well, you can continue bullying it with the constant thoughts of you. yes, they put a smile on my face, so it’s actually a good thing.
