We Made it Here

 

Will you still love me when I’m old and gray?

Will you be there on one of “those” days?

 

It seems we waited forever to get here

There were times when it was so close

You were so near

 

So close and so far

Now we are who we are

Husband and wife

After nine long years

 

You pursued me

I fought you every step of the way

Until finally

I gave in

It was on that warm August day

 

My sister and I were at the tattoo shop

Your best bud was there

He would not let us leave

You came in and swept me off my feet

 

We did not care about our audience

We finally had the chance

After so many years we meet

 

It took one look

One stolen moment

Now here we are

Living for the moment

Seizing the day

 

Here we are together

Facing the fear

Together until death

For many long years

Loved this poem, well written, just noticed one typo. 7th stanza 1st line you have ) it took on look) I think you meant to say ( it took one look) anyway enjoyed reading your poem.
