Redemption

Is there a road to redemption? Her coming into my life was a miracle. She saved me. But she also came in like rolling thunder to my lightning strikes. Opinionated, aggressive, argumentative, and fuck did it make me react. She is the first woman to ever call me on my bullshit, causing my blood to boil like no other. The problem is, she sees right through me. I’m a bad man with no redeeming qualities or is that true? I might not be who she wants, but I can be the only man she will ever need, and she is the only one that can penetrate my blackened heart. The price is high but with her, I get not one but two hearts that will be solely mine. Fire and ice! Freedom is all I wanted and what I got were surprises. All wrapped up in a man that was everything I hated. Life was supposed to be simple. Stick to the plan, that’s all I had to do and then he came in tempting me and pushing my buttons. So why did I let him get under my skin, in my thoughts, and in my bed? There is too much to risk but what a delicious risk it would be. Is it possible to love someone you hate?
