Happy I Am Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

I am here as you wish,
To sit and listen.
Although I must admit,
I'm disappointed too!

Both of us know to realize it,
Your best has yet...
Been proven to be shown.
I hear this in your sighs.
And between deep breaths you take,
With a grunt to be followed by another moan.

Expecting less is not acceptable.
But I am here to sit with you to agree.
As I promised I would,
In support of your every move.

However...
If you want the best for yourself to come true,
Believe that you can and I will too.
With a leaving your disappointments,
Left behind not wanting to find again.

'What are you saying?
If I am happy with myself,
You are happy with me? '

Happy I am with 'and' for you.
But to bring to me your disappointments,
Both of us can better do without.
Unless negativity is what you seek to hear,
Come out of my mouth.

'Why would you do that? '

In support of your every move.
