day 10

my boyfriend loves me////




He convinces me to not be sad
but sometimes
you can't take the sad out of the girl

The sadness is just there

and I fell in love with it
before I fell in love with you

it is the place mat
before my welcoming heart
careful to step on sadness
not to leave your tracks there
it remembers your shoe size
and all of your footsteps

before entering a warm home
it is waiting there
for any soldier to knock down the door
invade some privacy
try to fall in love with me
then just leave
from disappointed

I did not ask to be born sad
or to fall in love with sadness
or to just find my soul mate
when i learned about heart beats
or foot steps
or even realized that i had a soul
and the ability to love
and to love many

my boyfriend loves me
some times I call him my fiance
because we are ready to marry
but sometimes we are not
because the sadness takes over my heart strings
leaves me to play puppeteer with every one's feelings

it's not what i wanted
it is just how i am


...
sadness is a blessing
