Love of My Life
In today’s world it’s easy to lose track of time
& otherwise get caught up in what’s going on.
So many families split up, so many loved ones
Lose track of who they are. Why they came together.
Divorcing a memory they can never truly run away from.
In today’s world it’s a blessing to know you. To get facial recognition & assurance with your every smile.
Not every moment can be as perfect as we expect it,
Yet we are appreciative and try not to take the moment
For granted. Just as the saying goes, “Not everyone knows what
They have.” It’s those refreshing moments that remind us
Of God’s praise. Not at all excusing us for the times we become
Absentees when we’re needed most, or simply lose track
Of time, there are so many things that factor into who we are,
Our upbringing, things we experience, The shapeless void
Of a missing father.
While that effect is monumental, we respond without responding.
Silence sometimes the most powerful form of toxicity
In response to communication.
In today’s world it’s not that uncommon, placing something else
Instead as priority, forgetting the bigger if not biggest issue.
For better or worse, the most memorable part of any union.
We take it at face value forgetting that we’re all kids at some point
Or another. It’s not impossible to revert back as we’re all human
At the end of the day.
That doesn’t at all excuse us for the times we aren’t present,
not just for ourselves. But for our partners, our friends, our families
the priority of accepting love as a walking and breathing testimony.
Our hands the door of faith, as we journey to the alter our lips
Have formed.
In today’s world it’s a blessing to know you & to get facial recognition
As well as reassurance every time I look at you.
No matter how much we mumble or grumble. I am forever grateful
to have met the love of my life.
Everything I’ll ever need no matter how much time passes.
You’re all I’ll ever need
