TWENTY

weeks it's been since i stepped out onto this field.

and not every moment has been fun, exciting, content,

but neither have i regretted any of them.

and because all too often i forget to thank,

and my pride staunches my true feelings,

thank you.

to the singular one that God has loved me enough to place into my life:

thank you for

accepting all about me without question; listening; becoming that solid wall for me; bearing my burdens with me; your honesty; telling me your mind; letting me hear your doubts, your concerns, your fears; running to my aid at a single word; dealing with my difficult traits; crying with me; laughing with me; sharing in my emotions;

for all of those.

i can never express the amount of gratitude i feel, the amount i want to show.

my ineptitude embarrasses me and shames me,

but you look past even that.

and because you do

i promise

to never hit you with any toothbrush ever again.

ever.
