Not An Easy Love Song

So we are to have no epic romance, you and I.
There will be no snow storms and no raging war.
Just your inability to make up your mind
And my inability to turn away.

You asked if I still loved you
And I said.
You asked me why
And I shrugged.
And what I meant to say was that love, for me, is you:
You are my lighthouse and my swelling sea.
But if I'd said it we would still be here.
Doing the same things.
I tell you when I am home.
And you pay for dinner.
We laugh.

Simple.

And it breaks
My
Heart.
Every time.
