The Real Deal Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Just with You and me...
I sit.
Grateful to have this peace.
And with You to share it with.

Alone but not lonely.
With flaws known You condone,
And accept.
So blessed I feel...
When a togetherness is present.

Just with You and me...
I sit.
Grateful to have this peace.
And with You to share it with.

Things and the trappings things bring,
To never stay.
I can say with You...
I am filled with joy and my most happiest.
No matter what comes to cloud or dampen my day...
In my heart you are,
As it has been that way.

Just with You and me...
I sit.
Grateful to have this peace.
And with You to share it with.


You remain for me...
The Real Deal.
