Markers
You preferred the milestones of life
House, kids, somebodies wife
I preferred the simpleness of our mile markers
pitter-patter of running feet
1 mile
then the beep
sweaty brow
Bright clear eyes
tip toes
as you come in to celebrate
with a kiss
running with you is pure bliss
i preferred to celebrate
each mile with you
my love for you
was simple and pure
I wish the immensity of it you knew.
