Thoughts at 4:27 am

I love that she sees me as I would be, 
And not as I am. 
That she tolerates my half century faults
As a passing phase. 

I love that our children
Have passion and curiosity
And are as different as sunsets. 

I love, now ain't that a surprise?
Despite all the punishment I've taken
I can still believe in another. 
And my reward is her laughter
My punishment her tears 
My heaven her touch
And my hell...
The years
Without.
