What She Didn't Know
I met my wife when we were both sixteen years old.  She quickly became my everything. Twenty years later, she still is. <br>  <br>Everyone thought Lynn was the crazy one.  They warned me from the moment I met her that, one day, she would break me. I didn’t care.  I wanted her and all her crazy. Always.  <br>  <br>Ultimately, some of our relationship was based on truths only the two of us knew, and that was unavoidable. <br>  <br>No matter what, I always knew one thing was true -- I loved Lynn with all my heart. <br>  <br>What no one saw was that my crazy far surpassed Lynn’s.  I just held mine close to my heart.  I held it in shadow while Lynn wore hers in the sun, but I knew it was there, right beneath the surface.  I just never told anyone.   <br>  <br>I always thought what Lynn didn’t know wouldn’t hurt her… until it did. <br>In the end, her crazy didn't break me. Mine did. <br> <br>
