My Person

My life, my light,
Without him, nothing's right.
Cliche? Perhaps.
My chest would collapse,
If we were ever apart.
He's been there from the start,
But I was blind,
Trapped with someone who didn't mind
Breaking my spirit
And I'd tell people I wouldn't hear it:
Their opinions of his flaws...
Then it gave me pause...

I became free
And discovered the real me.
Love was real again,
As if I could never feel pain.
He's my life, my light,
And I love him with all my might.
