Stayed anyway
I thought you were the most
beautiful creature,
the way you smelled like
you knew all my terrible secrets
and the way you touched
my hand anyway, like
it was perfectly okay
not to be perfect
and then you got even more
beautiful when you laid down
on my bed for the first time
with your hipbones pointing toward
the ceiling that i had stared at
so many nights when i couldnt sleep,
and the curve of your back tickling
the bed sheets i had lain in
night after night
fearing they would never be touched by
another body, and you
were surrounded by so much of me
you smelled my pillow and
looked at the pictures on my wall
and you smiled because you knew
all my terrible secrets and you
stayed anyway.

And that is what matters, the person chose to stay anyway.
A beautiful message in your words Blackrose. :)
