He Said He Thought I Saved Him

The celebration ended as we dragged ourselves to bed. My heart is brimming over with the words that he just said. We were sleepily talking as we so often do. To no suprise he leaned over and said ''I really love you''. Of course this is the routine. We always say ''Goodnight I love you and sleep well'' but he didn't stop there tonight. He said he thought I saved him from what he would have been. He said he was so thankful that I found him way back when. I felt my heart would burst from hearing such sweet love. I've often felt that I'm the one who owed my life above. Of course I didn't save him. His soul is way too pure. The truth is I'm the lucky one of this I know I'm sure.
