Even When Sometimes I’m A Mess

This is the truth

I am admitting to you.

I am swallowing my pride,

I might never bring this back.

I honestly thank you

For being by my side,

Especially those moments

I really didn’t want you around.

You’ve seen me

From every angle.

My puppy love,

And my happy silly face,

My saddened tears,

Including my nasty sticky goo

You wipe even with your bare hands.

When you hug me,

While I scream,

And I push you away…

Your soft whispers calm me.

You, my precious sanctuary,

In your arms I feel your care.

I’ve embarrassed you

In front of your family and friends.

It amazes me you’re still with me,

Even when sometimes I’m a mess.

I love you with all my might,

In better and worse in your life,

For I’m always noticing

Every single detail

You bring into mine.
