For W


About W

He stays with me
though he wants to be somewhere else but here
Waiting
Waiting
Waiting
Silently worrying
He is afraid he will lose me
He tries not to show it
He gets so angry
Fighting walls
Things that should not be
He is frustrated
Tired
Yet he stays
By me
He doesn’t give up
He loves me
So I won’t give up
I’ll keep going
Painful slow step
by
Painful slow step
He’s worth it.
I love him too.
