You already knew

My favorite thing 
is seeing you
smiling, 
laughing, 
loving (me).

The crinkle in your eyes
show how much you've aged.
But your spirit 
tells another story. 

Your eyes tell the story 
of a broken man
with lost hope 
and no faith in the world.

They show pain
and anguish.
They show heartbreak 
and broken trust.

The world is unfair,
but you already knew that.

Your spirit tells a story
of a man who was broken. 
With hope for a better life
and faith in me. 

It shows how you overcame
the pain and anguish, 
the heartbreak and broken trust
simply for love.

Love is a complicated thing, 
but you already knew that.
