Just Love Me

I look in your eyes and I see the pain. I know how badly you hurt. You were so good to me, so kind, so giving, so compassionate, so loving. You were my best friend. The man who taught me how to love. The man who taught me to believe. The man who taught me how to open my heart. I know I wasn’t always the greatest to you. I know that I would let my mouth or my crabbiness get the better of me and I know that I always took it out on you. I didn’t tell you often enough how much you mean to me. I didn’t tell you how proud of you I am, how impressed by you I am, how grateful I am that you are in my life. I took you for granted and I just always expected you to be there. Until the one day you weren’t.

I know what I did. I know how much you put up with. God I love you so much. Please forgive me. Forgive me baby. Open your heart, open your arms, just love me again. You say it’s easier to just walk away. To not feel anything. To harden your heart and be cold and uncaring. I know you miss me. I know you miss the closeness that we shared, the intimate moments, the love. Hold on to the memories. Remember all that is good. Remember and feel it again. We can do this. Don’t give up on us baby. You’ve known as long as I’ve known that we are meant for each other. Our souls long to be joined again. Our hearts long for the other again. Take a chance. Remember…..jumping in with both feet and having faith that you won’t drown. I did it once….a year ago. I’ve never regretted it. Months ago you begged me to have faith in us. You begged me to not give up on us. I’m asking you to do the same now. Have faith in us. Have faith in our love. Don’t give up on us. Just love me again. Love me the way you used to. Love me like the man in the photo. Just love me.
