After

What’s harder
finding
or keeping

Searching for your hearts desire
your knight is shining armor.
Once the ride into the sunset has wakened into morning

After he has seen you with hair that could rival Medusa
After he has picked up your used tissues
After seeing you pig out on a lazy day
After their laugh stops being cute and starts being annoying
After the bra and panties hanging around the room stops being sexy and starts 
being disgusting
After realizing she can't cook
After the sleepless nights of non stop snoring
After the march madness where the guys never leave
After the fights

What’s easier
the finding
or the keeping
