So You Say You Love Me

Ok, so you say you love me
Just to clarify, does that include:

Bad hair days,
blonde days,
'I hate work' days,
spotty days,
ugly days,
fat days,
'Does my bum look big in this' days,
grumpy days,
sick days,
sad days,
too much to drink days,
can't get out of bed days,
and the 'I'm not talking to you' days?

Ho ho Emma, I tend to forget how awful I can be but your reminder puts me in a frame of mind to admit but also smile. Just lots of fun her!

Emma; my own quote for love. "I take you for what you were, what you are, and what you will become." Jim

very cute and I think it would include those days too since I bet they are far and few between for you!

A tough question if there if there ever was one. Have you ever read W.H. Auden's poem - I believe it was "What is Love"? It is similar to yours. Peace & Love Matthew Anish

Tjhought I'd check out you work kind of cool,very girl like.I say that but I have those kind of days too:) It funny how we can generalize an emotion. Thanks for reading me and all your kind words these things stick with me. I can't believe you lkiked the acrostic though. I mixed a couple of other styles and then made it my own. People don't like it when you can't follow the rules> Take care okay? Mar!
