Dear Boyfriend, I wish I was strong enough to lift not one…
“Dear Boyfriend, I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both of us. I know you've done so much for me, so much for us; you never think of yourself, but us. You defend me, you defend us when people say things but when its my turn I cry and silence¦ Someday, I will be strong enough to lift not one, but both of us. No one knows you like I do, no one knows me like you do, no one knows of our love, our struggles. Weve come far, were in love, and well beat the odds together; well prove them all wrong.”
