To My Love

i know we have our differences
but we sort them out
no distance taken
no time taken
can give me another one like you.

i am not perfect
but with you i am complete
you fill the gaps
and make me a wrap.

however angry you get
no matter what your mindset
no one can ever take your placeĀ 
only i run the race.

i may tend to wonder off
but you give me a push
i always seem to forget
but your mind races like a jet.

i may be not as strong willed as you
and easily fade away like the dew
you are the glue that keeps me together
through all the stormy weather.

i may not be as you want me to be
as i am a wild roaring sea
you are the calm
my lucky charm.

i never want to let you go
even if the current is against the flow
the will i have is to hold on
even if my head is taken away and torn.

never going to leave your side
even if the road is open and wide
like glue i stick to you
coz you are one in a few.

love

Brendon,
Thank you for poem which comes straight from the heart. A first reading can leave the reader in no doubt of your sincerity about the one to whom you write.
