My Sweetness

I consider myself lucky

to write about such things

To have found such a sweetness

and all the joy he brings

The past twelve years we've struggled

just to make ends meet

From first cars to apartments

and miles under our feet

Tromping through the forest

or footprints in the sand

We did not need money

to live life hand in hand

All the sweetest memories

A bliss in every way

I have found my better half

whom I love more each day
