Love Poem: Innocense

Innocense

I remember feeling inadequate, but I also remember the fierceness I felt, 
That out of all the people surrounding me, I wasn't meant to protect anyone else, 
I felt completely ridiculed, but the feeling that I felt was so strong, 
God told me I want you to remain silent, while I loved you all along, 
I knew opinions would get in the way, because I watched how they were quick to throw judgment,
And it did not matter how pure my intent was, they would have turned it around to block it, 
The cautiousness in the air was so thick, like a fear that would not let go, 
And every day I would pray for your protection to see the truth and grow, 
I saw the innocence of your heart, a love that was so strong, 
It blew me away and I knew that's why you were gone for so long, 
And through it all you still held on, and stood for the love you believed, 
The courage you showed, man of God, was unlike anything I've ever seen, 
So forgive me if I love you more than I should, because your heart brings tears to my eyes, 
You will always have my friendship, I will always stand by your side.
