beautiful monster, you are most certainly
the ugliest thing that can exist is a person afraid of his own greatness
it tears me apart to still love you after all these years
…after such disappointment to be forever tied
but you can’t pray away true love
and you can’t force a man to be all he is called to be
the more i encouraged, the more you withdrew
eventually, i couldn’t see you at all
i used to believe that love was enough
until i loved you… and it came nowhere near close
the opposite of love isn’t hate. and it certainly isn’t just apathy
fear is a primal instinct that overrides all when you least expect it
you are far from ugly, yes, beautiful, indeed
but fear has turned you hideous
i can see into your soul,
how it yearns to live out its destiny
so sad that you’ve given up and you given in
such an ugly monster, overshadowing such a beautiful man
