My Love My Love

By Atalanta

You love me even though you really do not know me
Even though you have not seen my face
You made me feel beautiful
Even though I know I am not
You were there for me
Even when I was sure that I would die

My love for you is strong
It carries me through the dark
Loving you kept me alive
When I was sure the fight for my life
Would be in vain
Your beautiful face was in my mind as I slowly slipped away

Now I am alive
And not so well
I am terribly weak and forlorn
But it is thanks to you
For loving me even in the face of death
Even when I knew that I might die

**This is written for Daemonicus. When I was shot, my aunt contacted him. His love carried me through the worst. Now I am on the mend, but my strength sometimes fails me. So DP population, thanks for your support and get well soon's. Deamon, I love you. Thank you for everything.*
