Why Us? An Original Poem

Pain

And Suffering

Is what I've had all these years


I watched you be happy

With others

It broke me


About twenty years

Since the first day

We met


At the age of 7

You would take me

On pizza dates


You walways tell mom

“She will be my wife

When I grow up”


I was so innocent

And didn't worry about

Marriage


Years passed by

We been through it

All


But, there is nothing

Absolutely nothing

We can't overcome


We are

two strong Eagles

fighting the storm


You make me

stronger...

Did you know?


We've made

Mistakes

We are humans


What's most beautiful

About us is

We know God


If he's the center of us

Nothing the devil

Can do to tear us apart


You love me,

I Love you…

I always did


I get a little too crazy

When I think of losing you

I could never


After all look at us

We left and always came back

Running in circles


We're like two kids

When we are together

Silly


I can never stay mad at you

You put a smile on my face

Sometimes I try to hide it


You catch me smiling

Every single time

Only you can do that


I would give up everything,

fortunes and luxuries

If I had it, just to be with you


You held me up

When I fell down

You cleaned my tears


There's no one

I would rather spend the

Rest of my days with, only you…


I do apologize for my flaws

And imperfections

I will work on it


But for now

Let's show the world

We can survive the storms


This is why us

We are perfectly imperfect

I love you.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
