He found Her

He loves her

Even in her imperfection

With her dirt and secrets

With her ache and pain

With her lies and uncouth behavior 

He made her better

Corrected her with love 

Taught her about self love 

Treated her as a human

And respected her 

She was slipping into oblivion

The damage has been done

It was too late to correct it all

But she need not correct her past

But find someone who understands her choices

And appreciate who she has become
