Nothing left to hide behind.
All that I never wanted you to see.
Nothing to sheld you from my uglyness.
All that i've hidden.
Feeling shamefully naked.
Knowing that you still love me.
Feeling like you can see through all the lies.
Knowing that you've forgiven me.
Thank you for not rubbing it in.
Forever I wanted to hide.
Thank you for still being here.
Forever I know you will protect me.

It's great when we risk and expose ourselves and find we are loved not condemned. It breaks the false core belief that we are worthless and that if anyone really knew us they would not love us.
