My Guiding Light

Have I ever told you that I'd be lost without you? Your love is my guiding light without which, I would be blind. Fate favored me the day we met, and I feel forever grateful. Do you know that when I sleep you sweeten my dreams, defying reality on the wings of hope? Until I dined with you, I supped on guile and suspicion and defecated disbelief in heaps of frustration and anger. Are you aware you saved my life? I would have ended it long ago but for you. I was a nobody, just another toad with many faults. But you saw past my warts and through your eyes you let me see that I was a good man, thank you; for believing in me.

Emile, The price some pay to find a Prince.., and 'a good man'. They gotta kiss some toads. Your devotion shines through in 'My Guiding Light'. -Richard
