I’m arrogant,
I know, but I like it.
I always wanna impress,
My hair? I spike it.

I’m vain, and I’m rude,
Cocky, and crude.
Little virtue to find,
Many the vice,
Facades, and masks,
Sugar and spice.

But one thing redeems me,
Absolves me from the blame:

I belong to her.

She’s my redemption.

She’s pretty.
She’s got eyes that sparkle in the candlelight,
Like the darkest shades of jade,
And her voice pulls on the strings of my heart,
And I don’t want her words to fade.

I'm not sure...
But I think she cares about me.
I don't know...
But I really hope she does...

She brings out the very best of me,
Though… that’s not saying much…

She’d be perfect…
Except for one thing.

I love her.

I’m her redemption from perfection.
I just realized how much I needed to say this... how much I needed her to know that I know how lucky I am... and perhaps... how unlucky she is.
