My Favorite Moments

To the Strong Man That Could Leave and Survive

My favorite moments are the morning after

When we both wake from our slumber and are still in a haze as to what happened last night

My favorite moments are shared with you under the covers

hold you close.

So close.

Close enough that maybe even when you're out of my arms you still won't slip away from me.

My favorite moments are the "please I need you plea" in my voice and your " I can do it on your own attitude"

And I'll believe you too.

though I know you'd hurt without me.

I'd believe it to.

I'd believe that I'm so minuscule That you could actually forget my hands when replaced with another's.

Forget my love when you see someone elses shine,

not as bright or as hot as mine

but still they have love to give

Forget how I make your body tingle and feel secure all at once,

even though you are a safe that I never have the combination too I know you feel secure as well

In my arms.

You will pretend to forget the way our daughters play and love and laugh, and try to find it with a new family.

I know that I will wear my feelings on my sleeve which I normally do.

But his time the sleeve will be too long.

I will become entangled and engulfed in the extra fabric it posses and be swallowed

whole.

My life will become dull rusty scissors that will try to cut that fabric for the rest of my days and I will try to cut it,

knowing I will never be free.

But if I sink into it.

I can remember.

That my favorite moments with you were when after we tore each other up, we glued us back together.

The moments that I smile when I wake up next to you and you are already looking back.

The moments when both of our daughters lay in bed with us in the mornings.

Family breakfast.

Family lunch.

Family dinners.

Family.

Being a family. Being with you.

My favorite moments are when you forget that I'm broken and see me for everything I do.

For everything I am. And can be for you

And for ours

A partner in this crazy world

My favorite moments is when you say you love me

And I can feel it in my soul
