Romantic Love
Is it worth it
Maybe
In the beginning
When everything is
Fresh
Exciting
Adventurous
At the end maybe
When things are comfortable
But that middle part
Where you’re getting to know
Each other’s good and bad
I haven’t been able to survive it
Long enough to get comfortable
Tons of respect and admiration
For those who have been able to
Make it over twenty years together
It’s an accomplishment
I may never reach
