Happy Birthday My Love

My happiest moments
are when I am
out on the town
with you
And by town
I mean down town
This house is fine for now
and we are happier than most
even at our worst
Nothing else should matter
not going to get caught up
in what everyone else thinks
I am done trying to please
Happy Birthday my love ♥
it's your day
nobody else s
30 is here
and we will be alright.

SAFE

Safe in the arms
of the man
who would never leave me
by choice

Happy knowing he loves me
I feel cherished
comforted
by him

4 years ago we locked lips
after taking vows

3 years ago we moved
and had a beautiful
and challenging adventure

1 year ago
we bought our first home
and dog

I am safe here
no matter how many
past disasters creep up on me

I will hold onto
my safety
my love

Because no other
man has loved me
the way he has
a devotion that only
a true man can give

-May 2011

"Marriage has in it less of beauty but more of safety, than the single life; it has more care, but less danger, it is more merry, and more sad; it is fuller of sorrows, and fuller of joys; it lies under more burdens, but it is supported by all the strengths of love and charity, and those burdens are delightful."
-Bishop Jeremy Taylor

The Storm

Pouring on us
Repeatedly
We are soaked
Maybe instead of drowning
Frantically
We need to wait
For the storm
To pass
For the skies to lift

If you hold me
I will hold you
Tired of feeling overwhelmed
Maybe it is ok
To be helpless
To know we cannot
Control everything

We need to stand by each other
To gain strength
We can be each other’s shelter
While the storm passes
While the skies lift
Together we can make it through
Repeatedly
