Lose you now

by Brenda   Mar 8, 2021


You joke to me;
"Trade me in
for a newer model."
-
I would sooner
rip out
my own heart
than to
lose you now...
-
You are my lifeline
in this cruel world-
the balm
that healed
my broken soul-
a continual note
that plays
a tune
that only I can hear...
-
I truly began
to live-
to love-
when you came
into my life...
-
So there will be no
"trading you in"
no losing you-
for losing you
would be the end
of me...

    I could be that 'newer model', I have fewer miles on my shiny clock... but I know, I could never compete with your quality man. All the best to both of you! X
