I knew I was in love from day 1, so I can honestly say that I have loved you for 1672 days.
I was never afraid to try anything with you, we've probably fucked more than 1672 ways.
We had 1672 opportunities to show each other how we felt and we didn't take those opportunities to be our best. We've been tried and tried and tried again and each time I thought we passed the test.
But 1672 days later its over, you dump me and leave me with a broken heart. I gave you 1672 days of devotion, the happiest 1672 days of my life. I'm not the best or the hottest but I gave you everything I got and I when I didn't have anything left I pressed on. But still it ain't enough because of everything else that I'm not.
I don't have a lot of common sense
I'm not quick witted
I don't always think before I speak
I'm not a negotiator
I don't think quick on my toes
I react in unpleasant ways
I'm jealous
I'm extremely emotional
I give up quickly sometimes
I don't let you forget
I've called the cops
I hold grudges
I keep secrets
I tell lies
I'm selfish
Well yeah, it looks like I'm perfect...perfectly human and perfectly flawed. My flaws don't make me and won't break me but I guess they did break us. I stuck it out through so much shit, all the times we would fight and fuss. All the girls and indiscretions, through all the mistakes I've learned some lessons.
No, I'm not perfect. I cook, I clean, I shop, I work, I bathe kids, I support your habits and your hustles, I invest in your talents, I wash dirty clothes, I fold clean clothes, I fuck, I suck, I lick, I caress, I massage, I make soup, I hand out medicine, I try new things, I never turn you away, I give it when you ask and when you don't, I got a big ass, I got thick thighs, I have a pretty face, I'm a great mother, I laugh at your jokes, I put up with your shit for years, I patch up holes, I didn't make you leave, I love and I love and I love, I have faith, I believe, I forgive....I digress... I'm not perfect, but I bet you will never have another 1672 days like this again.
I love you forever David, Flaws and All!
