She    enters   my    heart   when  
I am unaware of   her   presence,  
and she  unbends  my  thoughts
when  my   self-esteem  needs   a
boost allowing me to love myself
as I love her.

She    gives  me   the   courage  to
embrace dreams and the strength
to   sacrifice  for  them   and    the  
determination     to    fulfill   them.

When  I feel lonely or distressed,
she helps  me to remember   that  
      she   is  always  with   me.

Sometimes  I  come  to you searching
for words from you that will give me
the courage  and  comfort to carry me
           through another day
                
     And   if  I  have  lost  faith  in  you,
      even  for  a  moment, I  know that
               you will restore it.

The
entire   sum  of
existence is the
magic of  being
needed  by just
one person and
that one person
helps you  to be
a  better  person.

Affairs
           don't
         start in
      bedrooms.
(They start with
   conversations).

Cheating
is a choice not a
      mistake
   and  means
          you
     don't give
       a   ****
     about your
    relationship.
     There's no
         excuse.

There are four very
important words in life:
Love,   Honesty,   Truth,
             Respect.
Without those in your life,
    you   have   nothing.
                                                                                   Jon York   2019

Of   all    the    things
I    needed   to   learn
        in   this  life,
that I am in right now
you  are   my  favorite,

because   you  are   as
gentle  as  a cloud but
you    love    with   the
     fury of a storm.  

And just like that, one
day  I  gave  up  on all
     of   my  excuses.
