You understand me.
Not the pretend "understanding"
but the genuine kind;
the kind that sets my heart on fire
with the need to understand you
as well.

You value my intellect
and the fact that I speak my mind,
even if no one else will listen.
But I know you will.
You respect me on a higher level
than most people I've known for years.
You tell me the truth,
but you know when I need to hear
you lie.

You try hard to see my point of view;
to walk in my shoes, attempting to see
what is inside my heart and soul.
Even if it kills you inside,
I know you only want me to
be happy.

But you only understand certain aspects.
I've faced trials, fought to overcome;
sometimes I don't understand myself.
In these dark hours, though,
when I'm feeling helpless and alone,
you always seem to know just how to
save me.*
