#17 of 2021 Mental Health Crisis

A poem for my partner.

I love it when your smiles are real.  
I love it when they're true.  
I love it when they radiate,  
like light shines down on you.  
  
I loved them then; I love them now;  
I love them all the same,  
as long as they are genuine  
and not damaged and lame.  
  
I hope to still make you shine more  
and shine amongst the stars  
with camping, kids, and cons galore  
unless that love is tar.  
  
I hope it doesn't stick to you  
in ways that you find crude  
I know I've done a lot of things  
to damper / destroy mood.  
  
Aft'rall this time is you choose true,  
you choose me once again  
I promise things will not be same.  
We'll sing for joy again.
