Tonight, he held me and I felt something different.It wasnt normal, it felt deeper but softer.

See tonight, I was laying on my bed watching “The Golden Girls” on Lifetime drifting away to a relaxing sleep & there was a knock at the door. I look at the clock & it read 2:33am. I grabbed my robe, slipped on my pink bra & elmo slippers and walked towards the door. I look through the peekhole to see my boyfriend, very emotional.

“John?”

Without saying a word, he walked into my arms and a sigh of relief crept out of his mouth. I guided him inside my apartment, I sat him on the bed and gave a him a cup of passion tea I made earlier that morning.

“John?”

He looked deep in my green eyes. I looked straight in his blue eyes to see a red sea of pain and sorrow that I didnt quite understand. He whispered:

“Love me please?”

“What?” I responded. “I do love you, with all my heart.”

He grabbed me tightly and I felt something different. He finally let his guard down. He let me look at his bare soul.
