I Was There

On the first day that our fate crossed. 'til the day our love grew. When God sent us four gifts of love, I was there. In times of struggle and emptiness, The world seemed so hard to please. When you needed a hand for you to lift, I was there. I was there, Thru thick and thin. In sickness and in health. 'til this life drift away. I was there, When your voice tears my bones. When you're out of control. I was there with a grieving soul. And when you realize my importance, The essence of this woman in your life. If you learned how to love.... You'll find me patiently waiting. I'm still there.

A patience and loyalty that can humble a raging Lion's heart Aiyah. A very calm loce and self assuredness. Great write. J.A.B.
