As I sneeze into yet another tissue
I look and see you from the back making soup
Creamy chicken and dumplings to be exact
and that's a fact Jack lol
or whatever Martin Lawrence said
That's one of our favorite comedians we share together
laughter
misery
pain
discombobulated
confused
the gains are all the same
As I hear you lecture me again
about how I have sinned
"You aren't taking proper care of yourself"
He would say lovingly as I push myself yet again
to tap dance for folks who could care less
As they laugh seeing me stressed at stupid things like
"Did I say that right" or "I feel bad about not overworking myself today"
None of it matters as I try to rest
watching me die inside as they steal my light
my joy
my inner mystery
As you are the Sun
and I your Moon
I take the lashing because you love me the way you do
You remind me to not push past the boundaries I have set
To keep steadfast when deserving
the aura around you is golden
home is with you
