he found her, cutting
her wrists, and bawling
her eyes out, she had
etched terrible words
into her legs, and arms,
he held her, and bandaged
everywhere, hiding the words.
"i love your eyes, and the way
the rare smile pops up on
your face."
he spoke so softly you
could barely hear him.
"i love how long your hair
is, and how it sways when
you walk."
she didn't seem to be flinching
at his words.
"i love how you look down
when your embarrassed,
and when you blush."
she blushes as he brings
it up, and he smiles.
"i love you as a whole.
every little imperfection
of yours is a perfection."
he kisses the side of her
head, and she holds on
tightly.
he takes a deep breath and
prepares himself for
what he's going to say.
"i love you. all of you."
