The Ravishing

Together, they took all my broken pieces and sealed them back together, making me whole again. Making me content.

And the new version of me felt younger and carefree. Like the shadows of the past were no longer hovering. Lifted away, evaporated into a bright, new horizon.

Because of them, I became the man I should have been had my life not changed so abruptly. When all had seemed lost. All hope gone. She’d found me amidst my pain.

Because of them, I was given a second chance at life. I was given the family I had always needed and desired and I would never let anything or anyone ever harm them again.

They would always be safe with me.

I was finally complete.

With them, I had found happiness.

Now.

And forever.
