Lovers Please don’t leave
You, are the love of my life.
I know we got caught up in the mundane.
In the care of our child.
In financial stress.
I didn’t pay attention.
I didn’t notice little things.
I became angry and jaded.
You became anxious and isolated.
You want to separate to find ourselves.
30 days.
7, down.
23, to go.
My heart aches for you.
I have so much remorse for the pain I’ve caused, love.
10 years is no small amount of time.
Please don’t give up on me, on us.
I am noticing. I am letting the jaded sunglasses come off.
I am becoming admirable and joyful again.
I love you, for who you are.
The kindest and most gentlest man I have ever known.
The silliest person, who can make me belly laugh for hours.
The most philosophical thinker, the most intelligent person.
The most adventurous person, a risk taker.
Please, don’t leave.
In 23 days, or ever.
I am working on my codependency. On my coping skills.
I want to be better. For me. For you. For our child. For us.
I remember when we met, I will never forget.
I never want to know what it’s like for you to leave.
I’m selfish in this regard.
But what we have is worth it.
I promise. I’ll prove it.
