The Greatest Honor


It is a great honor to hear
"I love you"
meaning
I like you
your heart
your soul
your body
You make me happy
You fulfill my desires
You heal my wounds
pains
or addictions
A greater honor is to hear
"please forgive me"
meaning
I saw myself through you
I saw something beautiful
I want to change
to become what I saw
Please give me time
accept me
hold me
and love me
The greatest honor is to hear
"please forgive me"
for the second time
meaning
you taught me already once
I want to learn more
You are a mirror
I want to keep looking in
teach me

When you hear it, be alarmed:
in front of you stands another mirror
in which you will look many times
which you must respect
with the greatest honor
