Love Don't Come Easy

Married Life

 

 

 

Love don’t come easy

Believe me

I know and…

I’ve earned every drop

 

In a green glass bottle

Is where I save it up

Just in case or for a…

Very rainy day

 

Times are the…

Winds of change

Once in a while

Things can get pretty rough

 

That’s when I lay it on

Thick as oil

My savored sweet cologne of love

 

She can’t resist me

Does everything that I want

Love don’t come easy

So sometimes I musk

Thinking outside the box

 

Although, quite a woman

More clever did I wed

She never forgets

A promise or word I’ve said

 

Pushes back my bedroom thoughts

Back-in-the-box

Foot-in-the-mouth with tail between my legs

Out of the house into the dog’s

i enjoyed every bit of it..thanks for sharing :)

[Mikayla_Stagg]

This is very relatable and true. I love it

[Kelly Scheppers]

I think it's pretty safe to say that we couldn't really live without each other...I think!

[Michael G. Smith]

I never understand why my wily ways don't seem to have the same effect on my wife as hers on me. Anyways that's what this piece is about.

[Cassie]

This is so true, marriage ain easy and women never forget any promise even if you promise while in a bad state of mind, we still dont forget, we also do not forget the hurts and pain you have caused..

[Michael G. Smith]

Women have memories like steel traps and we men always get caught in them, lol.

[Cassie]

Always you get caught in them,

[Fran Marie]

marriage is a 50/50 deal...both good and bad have to be shared by both
the rocky roads... traveled together...nicely penned

[Michael G. Smith]

I slightly disagree, it's more like 80/20 or 40/60 both ways most times, but I get your point. I will admit I did marry up.

[Rita L. Sev]

You speak the truth here, Mike. Your first stanza reminds me of something I say to my students whenever they call me "Miss..." I tell them that I am Mrs... and I earn that title. Love was never meant to be easy, but it is so worth the work.

[Michael G. Smith]

Haha, I tell my wife to tell her students the same thing.

We're at the mercy of our moods. Always do something else when you feel low.

Bonds are made to be broken,
Gold becomes a brass token,
so wait till that gold returns
when your passion burns and burns.

[Michael G. Smith]

Nice verse, thanks for the read.

[Avinash]

It might be a favorite wine or a secret lover or both but I'm glad that it provides solace to your distraught heart.
Loved the analogy and how everything sums up together in this beautiful poem of love and longing.

[Michael G. Smith]

Thanks Avinash.

Lol, yeah, married life is a b***h sometimes.
Other times a beach. Take the good with the bad.
Laying it on thick is never a good idea though, doesn't appear genuine.

[Michael G. Smith]

lol, thanks.
