Our Love...Our Fights Poem by Jennie Bregan

This month has been tough…
the toughest of our almost three years together…
We've yelled…screamed and walked away from each other…
Argued over stupid and not so stupid things…
We've bared our souls to each other in ways…
I didn't expect to until much much later...
I think by this point we have pretty much
seen everything in each other that could
push one away…
And we are still here…
and better for it.
I would not change anything…
This past month has taught me that
relationships aren't all peaches and rose petals…
sometimes limes and thorns get into the mix.
In these cases…
I know that by making Margaritas with the limes
while kissing the wounds the thorns have made…
will get us through.
No obstacle can stand in the way of our love…
We made it...
