My Life Verses Yours

My Life Verses Yours

A Poem by Skylar Elizabeth Hunter
"

In our relationship, my love competes with your money. And I'm afraid I'm going to lose.

"
i was taught
that love 
was more important
than any sum of money
friends, family
they were 
worth everything
but you, babe
you were taught
money was all
you'd ever need 
to be happy
and that
that breaks my heart
it means
you
someone with
a whole lot of money
could never truly
be happy with
me
someone who
has almost none
because i'd rather
have unbreakable bonds
then a new car
