I have been trying to recall how we came to be
trying to remember when you were just you,
and I was just me
Forgive me, but my memory is a little bit hazy…
I remember long looks at the grocery store
And then came the post it notes on my door
You remember when we first connected
how my body reacted was quite unexpected
Months passed by as we got to know one another
friend to friend, lover to lover
Then chaos came knocking on our front door
It rattled our foundation and crumbled our floor
You remember all of the anger, pain and misery
I found a man with morals, standards and integrity
(Trust me, this is not to be taken lightly!
These qualities are not found in everybody!)
Do you remember those days, how we hid ourselves inside?
Revelling in our bodies,ย there was nothing left to hide
We consoled ourselves with only our skin
we were young and adventurous
and living in sin
We spent years inside that sensual bliss
But the impact of the strife, I couldn’t dismiss
It became too much for me to bear
I decided to leave, not because I didn’t care!
It was just a little too much for the younger version of me
I think you understand, it was part of my destiny
How many times did fate bring us back together?
To reignite our flame and keep us connected to one another?
And even though we spent those years apart
We couldn’t ignore what was truly in our hearts
I couldn’t foretell our future, how our story would unfold
Until we met again that day, in the middle of the road
Somehow we intuited it was now or never,
to combine our lives and be together forever
From that moment on
I have never regretted it
Yes, you drive me nuts!!
But that’s to be expected
Looking back now,
anyone can see
Honey, you and I
are just meant to be
๐๐๐๐๐โค๐๐

We did. Started in 1999 for a few years, were apart for 5, then back together now for 9. I have to say Em, that I do hope you and your hubby’s relationship get back on some sort of track. We joke now that if it wasn’t for all of the great sex, we wouldn’t have gotten back together. I know how important it is to be able to feel that connection.

Yes great sex is important. May I ask why you broke up? Putz seems to think we’ll be together one day but I don’t think so.

There was a lot of drama to life back then that included a custody battle for his two daughters. I was quite young, wasn’t sure if I was ready to be a full time mom. Also, I had an inkling that my mother wasn’t going to be around for that much longer. I moved back home. She died 4 years later, from cancer. Hubby had shown up at her funeral. I was dating someone else at the time so I ended up laying awake, all night long, resisting the urge to go to him. And that’s when I knew that he was ‘the one’.

I do that periodically, but not every time. It puts a bunch of people in a lurch when I do, so try to crawl my way in. I’ll have to leave much earlier than usual, but I’ll make it in. Thank god for 4×4! ๐
