To the One I Love, Your Brokenness Is What Makes You So Beautiful

I know you are broken. I've always known. 

I have known since the day I met you that your pieces are shattered. You're broken in ways that you fail to explain and I cannot even begin to comprehend. 

Though you may disagree with me, I think this unexplainable brokenness is beautiful. 

You'll fight with me. 

You'll push me away as far as you can. 

You'll do everything in your power to make me hate you and I'll wish that I could.

But, I'm still going to be here admiring your many damaged pieces. 

I'll be here when you're wishing I hated you. 

I'll be here when you need to talk, but can't find the words, so I'll sit with you in silence. 

I'll be there when you use me, I'll probably even let you. That's how much I care about you. 

I'll let you walk all over me for as long as you choose, not because I don't respect myself enough to walk away, but because I love you enough to stay. 

You push every single person away and eventually they go, but what are you going to do when all your efforts fail and I'm still here?

I'm here because to me your brokenness is beautiful. Each damaged piece of you has constructed the person you are. 

No one, not one single person, has experienced the exact same pain as you.

You have fought battles and overcome pain that no one else can begin to understand. 

Please remember, you are admirably strong and your brokenness is beautiful so I'll be here.
