for justin.
perfect in my eyes, i see your imperfections
your smile, your laugh, your kiss, your touch
all dub me infectious
to be swayed by you, staid by you
in your arms where love is true
across the seven seas i'd follow,
through desert, moor, sea and snow
just to keep you in my sights
i beg you, darling, never go
beyond my reach, for i wouldn't know
up from down or left from right
you keep me anchored in the storming night
the life you lead takes you away
at times a year, a month, a day
never are you truly gone
in my heart your presence lives on
our adventure has hardly started
so happy our course has been charted
your the only blessing i would ever ask for
i will always love you, adore, adore
Whoever said being a military wife is easy, well, they were lying through their teeth. I feel disheartened at the knowledge that my life can change any minute, if a flight chief or a base commander decides to put my husband on a list. Today, we live in the desert, tomorrow, we could be in Germany. It's a very volatile life, but it is not unstable. I appreciate the copious blessings I gain from it.
For instance, this life is a good one to live in the moment for, never taking things for granted. Perspective is a huge factor that must be accounted for when raking over the qualms of this life. It's hard for me to be away from my family and friends for so long, as I am more inclined to let people into my heart than most; it's difficult to be away from those you love so much. On the other hand, what I've given up is altogether equal to what I've gained-a life with the man I love.
My goal here is not to complain, but to purge my mind of this tedious musing, so that reflection becomes clearer. I conside my blog my own form of a pensive, to those of you who will understand what I mean by that.
