Transactions

Your love created assets to my soul, taking away my liabilities, balancing it with the goodness of your hearts equity You gave me your all, even when you had nothing to gain. You blessed me with joy and carried all of the pain Whenever I incorrectly calculated you became my life bond, you gave yourself up for me, how was I supposed to respond? I was too clueless, too helpless and too afraid, so you took all of my debt. You took it while smiling, while cheering while loving me daily without any regret ‘I'm your risk free investment’ is what you used to say. You carried all the costs and paid all the premiums that life threw my way. You never complained, you always encouraged, you put me above all, even when I gambled in life you would be there whenever I fall But like an uneducated child I signed the loans that life offered me without even reading the fine print, Why didn't I squint? *breath* Bill paid, my heart now forever impaled by the heaviest splint.
