My darling

My darling, my love
Can I come and sit beside you
Ssshh... don't cry
Here let me wipe your tears
Do you think a little dirt will deter me
You fell
You're unclean
Here, let me wash the blood from face
And comb the mud out of your hair

You're beautiful... Still
Bruised
Wounded
Those wounds will take time to heal

My darling. Why do you hide your face from me
Look at me
Can't you see the one you love so much
I looked past your sin and saw my bride
Look past my anger and see your first love
