How long can girl be shackled to you.....

Do you know how you affect me??

you don't

you have never known because I have always chosen not to let you know

So in your blissful ignorance you affect me

so long...you said

and I sighed along with you

Yet time is relative in these mattters

Time means nothing when memories haunt like ghosts

and follow you like stalkers

time means nothing then

and years could have been days or even minutes

And sometimes years feel like decades

But the singular truth is you continue to affect me

I felt silly talking about exotic getaways

when you're just long for the warmth of the sun

I felt guilty for complaining about the heat

I wanted to compensate by knitting you a sweater

It was navy blue in my head with a white stripe across the chest

It would probably not fit,

you'd probably hate it anyway

but I can't knit

and the only thing I should knit if I do learn

are mittens for my unborn child

time is relative

not divorced from reality

I'm married to mine.....
