“Truth without love is brutality,
and love without truth is hypocrisy.”
— Warren W. Wiersbe

.
Why would lovers wear masks,
if not to deceive?
Truth is freedom, freedom is truth.
These are not abstract concepts.
If I pledge you my love, I pledge you my absolute truth.
I stand naked before you
with my flaws, imperfections,
indiscretions.
I beg of you
accept this humble servant
who is not worthy
but, who will give his life
to protect you and your honor.
Everything else can be taken away,
this is all I have to give.
Love me for me,
or leave me.
Let me love you
for you,
not for the mask
you choose to face the world.
