She

she rode around in my raggedy car
no we were'nt like the stars
she never complained
except about my complaining
she was so good with me
when it came to taming
she made me proud 
just by sitting near me
she endured my abuses
left and came back to me
she said i love you
while she was under my attack
she stayed faithful
and always had my back
she was the wife 
that never had my name
she made her vows
on what she made stand
she made me complete
and more of a man
she hade me so happy
just to be her man

I have found writing is a very good way to release the pain, we are fortunate to have this gift given by God, to use, so many others just hold the pain inside, write John, just write the pain, , your loved one is always with you, in a special place in your heart she will forever dwell~~
