Dark Lover

Roses are red 
Violets are blue
Candy is sweet 
And so are you 
You make my day
In your handsomeish way 
You sing a song 
And i sing along
because your voice
Fills me with pride
But I was not always on your side 
I used to think your love was dark 
Because of your hair and your many marks
I looked at you as the out side in
But your love came from within
Your hair was dark but you had light 
Your true self came into sight 
I know you have a lot of scars 
That were self inflicted for many years,
But once you told me the back story
My heart filled with tears,
No one should have to go through 
Those tragedies and pain,
No child should witness
Death by a train
I shouldn't have judged you
Before I even knew
Your heart was filled with love 
And together we flew!
