My Whole Life

She labours hard all day.
I work all afternoon.
We try to meet halfway
Between the sun and moon.

She feeds me love's buffet
A feast ending too soon.
I feel I'm misty spray
And She's this years monsoon

But as a selfish  man
I hope that I go first
For I'm not sure I can
Live with sorrow's cloudburst

I'm a spoon, She's the knife.
My typhoon, My whole life
