A Lover's Rambling

No relationship has a happily ever after,

Life gives no guarantees of true love.

And the mind is a thing easily swayed.

Sometimes it wants this, sometimes that.

Then I ponder how can I let myself go,

In something that might be so temporary.

The answer comes clear as day,

When I remember that caring face,

When I see the gentle twitch of his lips,

When I drown in the affectionate kisses he gives.

The answer is clear when I look at myself,

A strong, independent and fierce woman,

Ready to fight her own battles

Because he was never my white knight

He was the armour that I wore to my battles.

The answer is clear in my breakdowns,

As he slowly fits my broken pieces together,

Consoling and reassuring me.

While his shirt is wet with my tears.

The answers made me realise something,

I do not care if its permanent or not.

I am the luckiest to have felt this special.

As I adoringly look at my lover,

Silent and smiling as I ramble,

I again feel that warmth in my chest

And my heart repeats once again,

This silence is comfort

This silence is affection

This silence is love.
