Raining Tear Drops

As she tended to his fallen form she saw the many cuts, bruises and scars that littered his body.

They all had been inflicted because of her. At the thought she felt a tingling in her eyes and then the trickle down her cheek.

She was crying for him, for his broken and battered body. For all the times she had been too weak to save herself.

If she could she would have gotten rid of them.

"They are not so bad." He said using the pad of his thumb to wipe away a fallen tear.

She traced one. "But you have them because of me."

"Have you ever heard each scar tells a story all its own? I like to think each scar tells a different story of my love for you. Of how I was able to protect you and keep you safe. Of how, through enduring pain I won the ultimate contest. The one of love everlasting. So instead of thinking of them all as burdens, I think of them as memories worth remembering. An ultimate story."
