Quick to anger
slow to try new things
stubbornly resistant to suggestions

Non-traditional traditionalist
His name for me
a liberal with conservative ideas
"you wrap your sameness around you like a

he says

But you love me anyway, I say

No dearest he says
wrapping his arms around me

I love you for who you are
not in spite of
how you are.

yes, is his most honest answer.



with love, as ever
