about lodged bullets


Today I told him I changed his life, that I made everything better, that I fixed all his problems, and I don't think that's true. At least, that's no the whole truth.
The truth is that he change my life, and now I feel like I was one of those chronic pain patients, the ones that have bullets lodged in their guts for years and years and all they can think about is pain, although the pain is so excruciating and so constant that they don't even know they are in pain any longer. They only find out once the bullet is removed, and everything is A-OK, because now you know, you finally know, that you are not in pain. And you know what's pain. So life is good. Nothing can bring you down.
That's what he did to me. He took my metaphorical bullet from my guts and now I'm not in pain anymore, although I didn't realized I was in pain, so much pain before.
So when I say to him "I changed your life, I solved all your problems", I'm really saying thank you, thanks for transforming my ragged existence into pure bliss.

  1. That's because you didn't change my life. You actually managed to change everything, babe. :) #forthebetter There was nothing ragged about your existence either, by the way. You've always been the sweetest girl there is, and you know that. :D
