Welcome to my poetry and writing blog!
Hello, and I hope you are well! I am so glad you are here! I hope you are practicing your self-care and drinking your water!
I thought today would be suitable for a love poem. It’s always a good day for a love poem! Something you might not know about me is that I am completely in LOVE with my husband, Justin. We have been together for ten years and married for almost six years.
Through these difficult years, Justin has stood there, right beside me. He has been through awful times while I was manic, and he went through a probably helpless feeling time when I was severely depressed.
It was hard in the beginning because my family was cruel to him, doing childish things like spreading rumors about him and making fun of his appearance. My little sisters were incredibly awful, and my mom might have been the worst. I remember talking to Justin on the phone one day, and at the time, I was living at my mom’s house. As she walked by, she roared, “He sounds like a woman!” I was horrified!
Another time, my little sister texted me and said my husband looked like a “mentally challenged Jabba the Hutt.” She used the mean word for mentally challenged, and at first, I didn’t know what to think. I knew she had said something mean, but when I found out who Jabba the Hutt was, I started crying because it hurt my feelings so bad she would say something so mean. My husband thought it was hilarious, but compared to other things they said about him, it was pretty tame. I won’t even mention the worst of it because it’s just too awful to talk about!
Getting back to the LOVE, yes, I do love Justin so much! It’s nice to be able to write love poetry about the person you are with, rather than love poetry when you are with someone you can’t stand, as you dream of another. My first marriage was hellish, to say it nicely, so I am so fortunate to have found such a great guy!
Today’s poem is about my love, and I hope you enjoy it!
