Three years

three years
gone in the wind
passed by violently
passionately

lovely


trivialaties
don't matter
not in the scheme
of her mind


absolutely

together they'll stand
despite prejudices and
misconceptions of others
he'll remain for her

confident


and she is his
this modern day
tale is not of faeries
or anything so

perfect


yet still it has
a measure of such
this happiness
they share

forever
together

happiness

tucking the tendril of hair
behind her ear
she smiles
eyes glistening
with happiness
at the one she loves

and now she thinks
of all the things
she could have thrown away
and the darkning loom
of depression comes creeping back
like a lover, caressing her heart
with icicle fingers

but she shakes it off
because the mistake was never made
not really, at least, not physically
maybe in her mind she crossed the line
from time to time
but never permenantly
never completely

and now she has
well almost has
everything she's always wanted
the completion she'd craved
since her earliest days

soon it will come
she's hoping
that it'll be here within the month
and then the planning can commence
even though it's layed out perfectly
in her mind
and needs nothing more than
a budget of sorts

and that shiny thing
is so trivial sometimes
and needs not arrive
until everything is done
and said and signed

he wants it though
to give that to her
the way that society can mark them
and the connection they have
and she loves him for this
for all that he is
and she embraces him entirely
his amazing qualities
and faults abound

and he returns the favor
i'm sure

and in this notion of life
there stands few opposition
none which cannot be easily
over taken

feelings between are to strong
and too deep
longlasting and ever enduring

and in this notion of life
the two stand
with entertwined hearts
and interlocked hands
