True Love a Realistic Veiw

True Love A Realistic View. 

True love
Is not always an idyllic romantic affair
Roses given may include the thorns
And everything changes
Nothings  certain
After  a baby is born
It takes two to have a relationship
And only one to break it up
It’s easy to become strangers at heart
If you don’t drink from the same cup

Soon as a couple has bonded and are committed
One may feel they don’t have to try any more
Courting goes through the window
The others heading for the door

Money can be a problem
And create a wall
Just like Humpty Dumpty
Your heading for a fall

True love is wiping a partners snotty nose
And doing things you don’t want to
Like doing the garden and using a water hose

True love is living to make someone happy
And forgetting yourself
Putting up with your partners bad habits 
And caring in sickness and health

Doing and sharing things together
Being best friends
Listening and trying to understand
The woman
And the man

True love is getting up at four in the morning
On a cold winters day
When you feel like going back to bed
But you need to provide
And earn your pay

People can sometimes mistake lust 
For love
One foot in the bedroom
The other out the door
With more than clothes
 Left on the bedroom floor

One may think the grass is greener on the other side
For selfish ego
And foolish pride

Relationships are like flowers
That need nurturing 
With with tender care
And compassion
Being able to pick up the pieces when things blow

The greatest love is a Mothers love
And learning to love oneself
Being content with what you have
And loving God above.
