Living On Edge

This life seems short.
But when I'm with you
It seems longer than I imagined.
This tangled up story,
These stupid lies.
They seem to disappear.
It feels like I've been kicked in the rear.
I wish I had a little bit longer.
Long enough to see us grow.
Us together seems to bring me low.
I      to see us go down.
Without you I might drown.
I just love you so.
We just have to let go.

life at your age is too short. but when you look at being in your forties you have to make very careful dissicions. what does a guy want to marry if he does want to get married. and if she is that thing; will he cherish her even the more? Yes, He will. John
