Pure Devotion
I have always wondered if I can be loyal to a fault,
Can pure devotion somehow bring a relationship to a halt?
I’ve noticed in my life friends can’t accept my faithfulness,
For it scares them far away as they run and simply digress.
I breath with codependency as my kindness pushes them away,
I get too attached and they get annoyed and finally stray.
But my fidelity with my hubby has always been in my life,
We are two bodies sharing one soul, for I am his loyal wife.
Commitment to his devotedness has always been a priority,
I concentrate on our trust and honor in utmost majority.
Our piety has grown deeper over the last twenty years,
Yes, there has been much honesty, but also many tears.
The benevolence I carry keeps me alive forever and a day,
And the true steady of my dedication will always stay.
I’ve always wondered if I can be loyal to a fault,
Now I know that I should embrace my reliability and exalt.
