Love Equals
At 16 they walk hand in hand,
communicating with a coded understanding.
Their lives consist of school, dance, soccer,
and each other.
Everyone says they are too young
High School romances never last.
Then, love equals laughing and making out!
At 20 they walk arms intertwined,
understanding each subtle grin and glance.
In a new state they step on college grounds
and stand together, excited for this new journey.
Everyone think's they'll end up pregnant,
just stupid kids making more stupid kids.
Love equals supporting each other and proving everyone wrong.
At 24 they make a commitment
Her radiance, dressed in white fills his eyes with tears.
To have and to hold through sickness and health
Love equals fusing their lives forever.
At 30 they walk hand in hand
with their first child, as a family.
Parenthood is nothing they dreamed of but more.
Love equals growing together.
At 60 they hobble slowly together
She, his perfect pink pearl: beautiful
He, her knight in shining armor : safe
After 36 years of marriage
Love equals loving your wrinkly friend.
In heaven they fly together in sync
bound together as one
Love equals friendship for eternity.
