When we met, and I first looked into your eyes images flashed in my mind a slide show , a preview. I could see what you would look like laughing, smiling, sleeping. I knew that you would be the kind of man who yells when he's angry but makes up for it in tenderness. I sensed what it would feel like when you touched my face, or kissed me. I knew that I would love you. I knew too, that you would break my heart. In your dark eyes I saw a chasm of need, an empty hole in your soul dug deep by people who were supposed to love you and did not. I'm sorry they didn't make a safe place for you in the world, I'm sorry that you were a little boy lost and that no one can sate the love-hunger of that child. All I can do is love you now. You have to make the choice to let that be enough. |
