Sincerely
You are closer to me than a kidney is to a stone,
I love you more than your everything.
If you die before I do
I will have my own bags packed
and wherever we end up
will be just fine by me,
just as long as I can make you smile.
At night your cold feet on my back
help me dream of Polar Bears canoodling.
Sometimes your left hip creaks
in sympathy to my own cranked knee.
You are a cream for my rash
which flares up when you're not
100% around.
If you dent my S Type Jaguar once more
I will forgive you
besides it not that great, its old
though not as old as you, but you are greater.
I will forgive you
like an ingrowing toenail forgives
a too tight shoe,
or like a cold sore forgives
the soothing kiss of lip balm
You are my good right arm,
etcetera, etcetera.
