More Than I Deserve

she’s more than I deserve, better than I

could ever hope for, a companion through times

both good and bad, a friend until the end,

standing by my side when no one else would,

a sounding board for the madness,

a shelter from the wind, a sexual fantasy,

a warm summer’s dream;

riding out the storm in Calera, Alabama,

surviving the threats of a dark future,

always there, overcoming fears

and barriers;

more than I am worth,

more than I deserve.
