…OF MY LIFE

I didn’t marry the love of my life

Yet I can’t cut him from my life

I live for him and the simple joys he gives me

And I die inside, a little each time he leaves

He is pain

He is passion

He is laughter

He is dreams

He is pride

And everything in between

It’s the handholding

It’s the kiss

It’s the peace

It’s the late night calls

It’s the hidden looks

It’s the banter

It’s the common goals

It’s everything I let go

He’s my home

He’s my shore

He’s my anchor

He’s my soldier

He’s my hope

My lifeline

He consumes me

My yes to any maybes

He’s the love of his life

He’s the love of my life

I have him but I don’t
