My Love
nearing 10 years, already
ups, downs, the gruelling
the heartbreaking, the blissful
companion, travel mate, friend
my intimate confidant
through turbulent change
smooth waters
smiles in her challenges
makes me laugh
shoos away my gloom
in her arms today
as the day this was taken
the world, the callous, brazen place
fades away
