I thought I was calm
I'm fiery
Outspoken and it can sometimes seem negative
My love is so deep
My care is beyond the depth of an ocean
What I need is someone to bring out the best in me
Not think of me in a negative way
I enjoy long walks, romantic dinners
I love intelligent stimulating conversations
I enjoy teaching and learning new skills
I realised I need to love this fiery side of me more
Perhaps I'm not as confident as I thought I was
I appear perfect in some people's eyes
They don't know my struggle
Only pieces
They don't know my hard life or trauma
Only the bread crumbs
But I could love anybody with the fire of a thousand heatwaves at once
I know I could give them deep passion and loose their mind in the satin sheets
I just keep my fence up and reserve myself for my Knight who will bring out the best in me
Because only he will deserve to share my world
The one who will meet me half way
Appreciating me and loving me the way I am
The one who will not take away, but work with me and help me understand
I had a long way to go, but I know why it didn't work
