True love is sacred, some find it, some don't and some live a life pretending they have found this type of love in a love that doesn't exist...
That's what's on my mind.
I don't doubt that he is an amazing person. He really is.
And after today, I don't expect anyone to understand. Not friends, nor family, not him and not even me perhaps.
He is of Filipino decent, tall, good natural build, witty, has amazing eyes that could pierce through souls, a set of thick eyebrows that framed his face. His presence gave me serenity in this chaotic life I live, peace in mind and love that created my deepest and fondest of memories. He looked after me well, doing day to day chores that seemed insignificant yet everything that makes my life the way it is.
Last night, over a senseless debate, he spoke in spite claiming that I was "...f*#king stupid" over and over again. Usually that didn't bother me, but I read his tone, his eyes and listened to his words. I took a shower and when I came back out he was asleep. I went to sleep with the thought, "Is this good enough for me that I was just settling?".
Sometimes I'm not happy, but I accept it. Does everyone feel the same way? Is this what tolerance is? Is this what love is?
How do you know the person you're with isn't JUST "good enough"? Because you see, you can always learn to love someone.
How do you know that the reason you're in this r'ship isn't because you're holding onto a past of how perfect they were? So you go day-by-day hoping to relive the perfection of them?
You live to create excuses for yourself of their imperfections?
How do you know that you actually like them and not only like the idea of them?
I understand, even the best of lovers go through doubt. But its those times that requires perseverance, a little more tenderness and love...
What if I wasn't given any of this. Is he still worth the weight? worth the time?

Am I the person he's willing to fight for or the many girls that he had let past him by?
Who am I?
