“You don’t love someone because they’re perfect, love them in spite of the fact that they’re not.” Jodi Picoult

Surely Two Are Better?

My eyes are stitched to you like a rag doll,
little crosses holding me together,
not unlike the ones we sometimes bear,
love does lift me whole.

My heart sometimes becomes heavy,
but there are moments when we share
the push and pull of life together,
surely two are better than one?

Each day brings its treasures along,
some welcome and some not so,
it takes time to accept things like that,
so we fixed a symbol of our love in the sky.
