The Love of My Life

I fell in love with you
But I'll admit, not right away
At first I didn't know how to handle you -
You left a horrible taste in my mouth.
I told myself to give it more time
For I knew of the indefinite happiness you could bring me.

Time passed and I was right -
I was infatuated with you.
After a long day of work
I would return home to you
With open arms,
Spilling my emotions into you.
And you poured yours into me.

I became reliant on you,
My beloved wife.
I didn't know how to function alone.
How can I go through life,
If you weren't at home?

Simple dialogue turned to
Screaming matches.
Oh, every morning I would
Awake with a headache.
All thanks to you.

But every night,
Despite the fights,
I would come running to you
With open arms.
And every morning I wake up
With your empty bottle in between them.

So abstract. So deep and sensual. I can really feel the emotion here. Astronomical.
