Who knew

romance

Who knew that being in your thirty’s

The view would rearrange  

I don’t miss the casual sex or

Awkward next day “be on your way” 

There were plenty of opportunities 

For a last name change

Never single but always 

With restraint

It makes me smile 

Just to reminisce 

Who knew there’d be so much 

I didn’t miss 

Take for instance 

All those scribbled notes 

Little poems 

Penned with love 

I did it more than once 

Charmed many 

With an easy front

It was the drama 

They craved 

Three days of undeniable 

Passion 

My interest hardly 

Lasted 

Who knew

My last move 

Would lead me to you 

Almost 7 years deep 

Bad habits die hard

(No desires to cheat) 

Who knew 

That’d even be a “thing”

You have me at the alter

Left speechless 

Without confession

No skeletons in my closet

(Any more) 

On a journey 

With right intentions 

I tossed out old collections

-Memorabilia of all the women

I ever spent with-

Simple is beautiful 

 Reciprocal love

Without deception

Who knew 

My best moments

Came without trying 

Now I’m coasting 

With a heart on fire

Smiling like 

I knew..
