"If I told you a secret, would you keep it?"

He's damaged.
I'm determined.
I've loved him my whole life, but he's broken, older, full of secrets.
The bruises on his skin, the silent tears, the hidden pain... I know I'm in over my head.
My father warns me against him, but his eyes plead with me to save him.
All I know is that I can't walk away from him.
I promised I would be there for him.
And I will.
Always.
