Prompt: Sometimes
Sometimes I wondered what it would be like if I hadn't chosen him, or if he hadn't chosen me. I think about what life would be like living alone and unhappy, while he's out with her, being in love. Then I think about him being in that position, and I'm even more sad.
Sometimes I'm feeling down and he comes around and cheers me right up. I sit down at the kitchen table one morning with bad news about one of my sisters, and he comes around and tells me that everything is going to be okay, and that I shouldn't worry about her.
Sometimes I tell myself not to get so carried away with things. I lay beside him at night in our apartment wondering how I could be so lucky to be with him. He rolls over and kisses me passionately and I can just feel the sparks between us, and I tell myself not to get carried away but I can't help myself. I kiss him back.
Sometimes I can't help but stare at him while he's doing something. Swimming down at the lake one day he takes his shirt off and I sit there by a log and watch him. I watch as his muscles ripple as he moves. I watch as the scar on his lip turns white as he smiles at me.
Sometimes I think I'm alone in this world, but sure enough he's there beside me. He takes mt hand and guides me the way I need to go so I don't get lost along the way. He is my guard rail.
Sometimes I lose myself inside my mind. I wake up screaming one night from terrible nightmares, so he holds me until my tears end. We lay down once more and he envelopes me in a protective hug, both of us falling asleep like that.
Sometimes I think about our future. I think about us getting married, with a little ceremony close to home. Raising a few kids and watching them grow up as we grow old.
Sometimes I think about us. I think about all of those times we have and all the times we are going to have. I know I can count on him. I know he'll always be there, watching over me.
