Member Poem

I know that you’re not perfect, and you don’t claim to be,
but sometimes I don’t understand just why you chose me.
I can’t be for my brain; there is so much I do not know,
Nor for my forgiveness because I never can let go.
At night I always hog the bed and steal the covers too
And I always want to cuddle so much longer than you do.
I don’t care much for makeup and I always dye my hair,
And I love my baggy sweatpants; they’re my favorite thing to wear.
Sometimes I scream and yell at you for no reason at all,
Or maybe just hang up on you, and then wait for you to call.
I whine just like a child when I don’t get my way
And I need reminders of your love each and every day.
I obsess over the little things for hours at a time,
I take forever to decide and then I change my mind.
Now we are both imperfect but I guess that’s okay,
Because together we have built a love in our own perfect way.
