I love you to understand me

We just want to be understood. Better than we understand ourselves. To be seen in a light we’ve only ever imagined ourselves. In our minds, our hopes, and even dreams. But never before on paper. Until today. See me as the entity I was created to be. The energy that I am, the entirety of me. Consecrate that impossibility. Prove to me that you see me. Show me proof you’ve traveled to my trials and tribulations. Bring me the fruit of my love that I’ve been yearning for my entire existence. Pay the debts of those before you with the blood you’ve shed from my own thorns. Show me your scars from your troubles and your journeys. Let me know you as you fight to know me. For you’ve known not the war I’ve fought to know you. Compare not the depth of our separate battle wounds but allow us to share our stories and open our hearts completely and utterly at each other’s mercy. Together, in doing so we learn the depths of ourselves we’d travel to for love.
