*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

You need not fear, I'm here. I know you are scared but they can't hurt you, not with me around. Don't listen to what they say, they don't see you like I do. They don't see the real beauty within you, the passion you have for your job in your heart. I believe in you. I know what really happened out there, and it wasn't your fault. You did the right thing.

You didn't lose anything that night, you gained more than you know. You gained my respect, but more so my love. Please know I care, and that I'll be there. I don't care about the baggage you carry, I've got my own, we make a full set together. Just open up your heart to me, and I'll cover you.

We can make a new life together. Live in my house, and I'll be your shelter. All you have to do is pay me back, will a thousand sweet kisses. Be my lover, and I'll cover you. I'm not asking for much but your trust in me, in you, and in us. We can make this right. I'll open my doors for you, and you can stay, be my tenant. Place your baggage next to mine, at my feet, and shower me with your thousand sweet kisses. Always be here, to cover me.

Please know I meant it, when I said that I love you. I know it frightens you, those words, but it's ok. They say you can't buy love, but I think you can rent it. You are my new lease on life, you are my love. Just be my life. Slip me on, when you need warmth, I'll be your blanket, I'll cover you. You'll be my king, and I'll be your castle. I'll be your queen and you'll be my moat. Just shower me with your thousand sweet kisses, and I'll cover you.

We fit together like a puzzle. Oddly shapped, but we snap together like the perfect fit. I don't want to be with him anymore. I only want you, you're all I have ever wanted. When everything got tough, you covered me, and kept me safe and warm. When I was ill, you came and stayed by my side, through all house of the night, and covered me. Now it's my turn to cover you, to shower you with my thousand sweet kisses.
