Wife

So,
the simple touch
of a wife in love
can bring about
an appreciation
for a life lived fair.
And the days
We never look back on
Mean the most when
You stop to think about it;
But, we’ve got to bother to…
And the days
We never look back on
Mean the most when
I’m sleeping on a highway,
Missing your touch the
Way it used to be; And
The days we never look back on
Mean the most
When you keep your hand in mine,
The way it used to be; and
We just hold on to today, like
That sometime when won’t happen
Anytime soon.

 

 
We
can laugh, we
can love, we
can throw barbs,
but we will remain
in refusal of surrender.
