Equal to at Least That

I’ve lived
Wholeheartedly
I’ve erred
Intentionally
I’ve traveled the road to redemption
Repeatedly
I’ve succeeded
Daily
I’ve failed
Often
I’ve lived
Unabashedly

I’ve shared secrets with you that I’ve hidden from the world

I don’t regret a single thing I’ve said
Or moment of my time with you
I certainly don’t regret what I’ve learned since I’ve met you

That to love healthily
Requires baring all of myself
Unaware of the outcome
Trusting that person will cradle my fears with care
Accept me unconditionally for who I am
And understand when I tell them that I believe their love for me
Is equal to at least that

I was hoping that your definition of love was the same

Thank you
For showing me
That it is
