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.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Have a blessed day.
