My Broken Angel
When I see you, I see hope.
The hope of a soldier,
Fighting his way in a war,
Who wants nothing more than
Just to make peace, and to
Make it home.
When I see you, I see light.
It's the light of kindness.
But its buried underneath
Everything that's harmed you.
And it shines bright just for
The one you love most.
When I see you, I see strength.
Your strength overpowers all.
It comes for the pain you've
Ventured from, the scars that
Mark your skin. They've made
You stronger.
When I see you, I see inspiration.
With all you've witnessed and
Dealt with, how you can make it
Through is amazing. That solely
Helps me to remember that
I can go on with all this.
When I see you, I see a hero.
Like the one Marvel would make up.
Although you've been to Hell and back,
To the moon and Sun, you still have
Just one piece of you that
Gives you reason to stay.
When I see you, I see an angel.
You are glorious, magnificent,
Greater than anything I've seen.
You're sweet, loving, brave,
And you ask for very little
In return.
And that's why I love you.
You're wholesome, you've beaten
All odds, you don't judge, you are
Amazing. You are everything I could
Ever want and more, and the best part:
You are completely real.
