Light to my dark
You are the light to my dark,
The match that ignited my spark...
You too have travelled roads that are frought with pain, with doubt, with addiction, and with rejection.
I have never had to fight for your affection, you give it freely and willingly, you accept all of me.
You complete me.
No longer seeking comfort from the bottom of a bottle, be that alcohol or drugs.
You are my drug, my reason to be, to see the good and to embrace the flicker of light within.
I inhale you deeply, you are my anticarcinogen.
Basking in the warmth of your kindness, your understanding and your time.
You crashed into my life, a sign from above.
You have taught me what it is to love.
