Thank you for teaching me that love is supportive.
In this life, we are latched together, with no desire to break the powerful lock on our love. We walk through life as one; leaning on each other as we stumble, pulling each other back to safety when we fall. You build me up, even as you dismantle my towering walls with every word you speak. I lift your spirits; consoling you when the weight of life threatens to suffocate you, dousing the flames when the rising fire encircles you.
