SPOUSE OR SETTLEMENT (I wrote this one awhile ago..no one seemed to like it...Here's trying again....)
By Jamille A. Weiland (a.k.a. Lotus)
"Dead"-icated to Branden...my loving husband...Whom I could treat better...
We fight, we argue,
and we cry
But I wouldn't trade you in
And here's the reasons why:
Jackets when it's cold
Fresh-picked berries off the vine
Your never-ending belief in me
As well as the Divine
By my side
Through night and day
"He's lowering her blood pressure"
I heard one of the nurses say
Items wear, break, and tear
They fade and become obsolete
Fun at first, then discarded
And you thought i'd somehow make you "complete"
Nuts on a sundae
Fish on the line
Good times to be had
Leaves no one behind
Wings are what you offer
Comfort is what you give
You make life an art-form
In the way in which you live
Contagious smile
Fun-loving laugh
I'd sail without you
Even half-mast
I spent a lifetime without you
I found you quite late
Like a fish on the line
I wanted the bait
I want what I have
There's nothing I lack
What I need, it surrounds me
I only wish I could pay you back.
