Nov 2014
we found it where
the rubble lies
we found it beneath
such wretched lies
we found it when
we were both
so lost
we found it even
beneath the gloss

we found love
buried under the bets
saying we would not make it

but let's not forget

that everyone that ever
dropped their money in the pool
is financing their own divorce
and just look like a fool

because we found love
as two souls, separated
and not one persons
disillusionment
was ever going to take it
away from us
what we have is forever
we found love
*we found it together
26 years together, coming up to our  20th wedding anniversary Nov 26th... Yes, we were subjected to a dating pool, all those that betted against us are now divorced... Score One to me and my beautiful Lifemate :) Score Nil to the Haters!
