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.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
