To Honest For Your Own Good

To honest for your own good Mary I kept saying Remember Fort Gordon when you flew in for the weekend I met you at the Airport on crutches Losing a leg in V.N. was almost worth it to see the look of love in your eyes For the way you almost nocked me down with our first hug Then when we tried to rent a car The sales man asked "Are you married?" In unison we answered I said yes and you said no And the salesman said "Come back when you make up your mind I loved you so much that day You and your inconvenient truth my love You and your inconvenient truth

A kind of melancholy bittersweet write. Those days brought memories that this young generation now will never understand nor obtain.

Whoa Michael, you are so deep and truthful, and i am so sorry for the misfortune of your leg. But still i feel a young man so strong, and always ready to keep going. Remember me and old friend writes, Life is still beautiful, its a donation form God. We have to live it. Terry xo
