A Letter to My Husband #2

Thank you for my book
It came at a time of need
My heart is so unsettled
I struggle to keep steed

My bones long deep
My heart in constant waves
Borderlining graceful marble
And fragile broken paves

I miss you like the sunshine
The pangs a deafening blow
Trying to be supportive
Hoping for us both to grow

I know this is the right thing
Because it feels so hard
I hope that I can grow from pain
Instead of crumbling into shards

But please know my love
This choice is for you
And by agreeing I do surrender
No contact isn’t a way I would go
For healing from the thunder

But we aren’t healing from thunder
Were healing from flood
From droughts that happened years ago
When our inner children were without

I know I shouldn’t, but I count the days
This couldn’t be a greater torture
My heart always on my sleeve
Pining for the future

The strength I hold within my heart
Of hope, of love, of us
I grit my teeth and knuckle down
And prey for time to pass

I hope you’re feeling better than me
I hope your healing well
I hope you’ve found a floating device
Thriving beyond your shell

I always want the best for you
Even, if now, I suffer
I hope we can return to love
Bring the best we have to offer

We got this my love, just hold on tight
Let’s be strong and consistent
Remember it’s only temporary
That our bodies are currently distant

Sending you strength, e del baci
What an interesting test
Hold my hand, we got this
Yours, la tua piccola lumaca.
