Flaws and All

He loved her. Flaws and all There wasn’t anything anyone could say or do to make him feel otherwise. There wasn't anything SHE could say or do to make him stop. she was all he had and he loved her; he loved her sense of humour the face she made whenever she figured something out. the passion she had the fire in her eyes. Many have tried. many have failed. he could never see her in a different light but that of his imagination. she captured his soul and wore it in a vile around her neck proudly He loved how she detest people. people doesn’t cut it.. humans. she detest humans. He loved all her flaws all her scars & dirty laundry. he didn’t care that she had 4 kids by four different guys or that she had daddy issues. He didn’t care; that she couldn’t start her day off without a little glen, jack & johnny. he didn’t care that she wasn’t the “ideal” girl. she was his girl.   Her beauty. Oh man her beauty, he would walk for miles on end just to see that smile. To carry her over his shoulder when she’s had too much to drink. To wake up next to her in the morning.   Nobody understood why. they probably never will. But she did. He saw past the facadé what he really saw was a little girl in a womans body; with little time left in the world. All he wanted was for her to have someone. For her not to leave the way her mother and grandmother left. And their mothers before. - Indie Goddess - P.s is anyone else having trouble accessing the site from their laptops?!
