All He Can Give
My significant other is six years younger than me (but he was born 30 years old and just keeps aging). I used to call him my weeble because he wobbles, but he doesn’t fall down. At least not until just recently (he is on the mend now). But if you stop and think that you have spent almost 29 years with someone you wonder how you both survived. How does a person adjust to fit into another person’s life? How do you not scream when he says something dumb or his tone of voice says he thinks you did something dumb? What keeps you from not walking up and slapping the piss out of him sometimes? It is LOVE, my friend! It is being thankful that he thinks your worth putting up with! That he can be blind to that extra roll around your middle that grew in what seemed like overnight. The wrinkles that fell out of the blue and attached themselves to a sexy woman’s face. Yup it is LOVE and I’ll have all he can give me!!
Thank you
The many messages that came in today.
Helped to keep the tears away.
I keep going over in my mind.
That my act was truly very kind.
But I find myself searching the floor.
Knowing full well he isn’t there any more.
Rain falling outside doesn’t help the mood,
But he is safe now and I will no longer brood.
