HE JUST GIVES......(DARREN)
Folder:
MEN IN MY LIFE HE has been there for me for nearly a year...
HE has never been demanding, or asking me to stop talking,
About my ex, who hurt me so badly.
HE smiles and laughs with me, and we make jokes,
Over his ex and mine.
It is how we survived.
I believe,
That when we met, (totally by coincidence)
It was that we needed to heal,
From these ex's who violated us,
Or we just couldn't understand.
He's drove me to a local city,
Thirty miles a way, for group.
He has taken me two hours away,
So I could bury my father.
He has never been judgemental of my obvious mistakes,
But has seen me as a work in progress.
Although at times, in his Psychology major self,
I wonder in his intent eyes, and deep looks,
If he is analyzing something I've said at an instinctual level, but he never says anything.
He has let me breathe,
He has left me in tears,
Crying from some hilarity.
And I've always been able to handle him
Leaving me in stitches--those are the best kind.
Every time I turn around,
His shoulder is there to cry on,
His ears are there to hear,
And his heart is there to love.
He never asks me for anything,
Not money, because I largely don't have it.
He just never asks me,
FOR ANYTHING,
He just gives.
This Christmas,
He gave me a gift certificate...to my favorite store.
Ten dollars can really buy a lot in this thrift store...
But I never expected the twenty five.
He amazes me with His love,
He asks for nothing,
HE JUST GIVES....
Very heart touching piece. I was curious where is Christmas Island? I've never heard of it. I live in Massachusettes..
