Poem -

He's everything you're not.

He's everything you're not.
You yelled and screamed.
He loves and nurtures.
You blame and decieve.
He has patience and honesty.
You made me a lifeless shell.
He makes me a wholeful person.
You held a gun to my head.
He took me paintballing and purposed.
you swallowed me in your toxicity.
He drowns me in affection.
You gave little and expected more.
He gives all and expects nothing.
Hes everything you'll never be and more.
I was a lifeless body swooned by your small affections
You took life AWAY from me.
He breathes life WITHIN me.
With him I'm alive.
With you I'm just a rose full of thorns.
Scarred to the touch and beautiful at first.
I never liked roses though.
So now I'm a carnation
Full of bloom and beauty .
