it wasn't exactly a date today
more of something you had done.
i had always been bullied at school
but today you backed me up.
they called me names like
"bastard"
"fucker"
and
"man stealer"
and i admit
it hit me hard.
i always accepted what they called me
and the beatings that followed up.
at least that's what happens usually
but today i took none.
you stood up for me
and i was touched.
you beat them up for me.
and when the principal called to ask what's up
they tried to blame it on me.
how i asked you to beat them up
and to call my parents to come.
but you told them it was not my fault
and the truth spilt out of your mouth.
everyone around us had their mouths agape
then started to back you up.
they told the truth
and had enough
so the bullies went into the office.
they came out with a scowl
on that day
and threatened us to watch out.
but you told me not to be afraid then
and we went out for lunch.
you paid again
to which i felt bad
but you said to just enjoy.
i took what you said
and the food that you gave
and ate it heartily.
it was a great day for me then,
and i hope it was for you too
because i really loved you.
you intertwined our hands as we were eating
and i tensed up just a bit
i relaxed after a few seconds
and smiled and continued to eat.
i loved how you didn't care
that many were starring at our hands.
i loved how caring you were towards me
and how you made sure i was fine.
i'll do this to you one day as well
where i'll make you feel loved and protected.
don't get me wrong,
i love you so
but i hope to show it better in the future.
you're the first person that has treated me so well
that i honestly can't let you go.
so if one day we ever do break up
i really hope not though.
but if that day really comes,
i'll gladly bid you goodbye.
not because i never loved you so
but because you deserved better
than what i can offer.
but while i have you in my arms now
and with me in your heart,
i'll show all the love i can show
and hopefully you'll see it well.
i love you.
