Partners Poem by Rita Umali

Having you at my side gives me comfort
Makes me secure that no money can buy
I rest in peace when I see you
Tiredness goes away everytime I hold your hand
Embraces are priceless
Moments are precious
The joy of being together gives me both sanity and hope

Yet my heart says you need me to let go
To allow your wings to spread, fly and soar
To fall once in a while and make decisions on your own
How hard it is for me
But I will for your sake
Someday I will see you be the best
and reach your dreams

I know I will be your partner always
In wins and in losses I will be at your side
To celebrate with and to comfort you when needed
