In return...

I can still remember that night, I can still feel the tears running down my face as if it was today when

we were sitting on the grass looking up to the sky, you were counting stars.

I stared at you. You with your sparkling eyes and soft figure, you.

Then you turned and looked at me. "What´s wrong?" You asked.

"It´s just that I don´t think you know how much I love you." I said.

"Don´t I?" you answered smiling.

Then, thoughts filled my mind, I couldn´t stop thinking about that... "I must told him."

"I can´t believe" I started "how I could ever live without you, you saved me from myself."

You tried to say something because you saw the tears in my eyes but I held your hand and told you to let me finish my speech.

"Sometimes I feel like I can´t forgive myself for the life I lived before you, for what I did wrong, for giving myself away so many times..."

You wiped my tears away softly and waited for me to catch my breath again.

I continued "And I can´t believe how good you´ve been to me..."

You kissed my hand and wrapped your arms around my trembling body, and there, close to your heart I whispered "And I only hope that in return I might have saved the best of me for you"
