i love lemons
an eclipse consumed my body, when I nearly succumbed to silent suffocation God brought me light in your form two questions puzzled my mind Was I dying... or only just coming alive? I love you because you taught me - you, don't complete me, I, complete me. you taught me I was strong enough to stitch the gaping holes torn through my self-respect my pride my dignity my happiness you believed in my strength you didn't need me to be your 'damsel in distress' you loved me un-broken -back to being my own s-h-e-ro I love you because sometimes, I'm too much sometimes, I feel too little ; because at times Tuesday's blue is not the same blue to me, on Wednesday and sometimes I let the demons eat my lemon meringue - a substitute cause it takes time to learn how to perfect lemonade
