Will it Matter?

I tell myself that I don't care

That we are together because I love you
I won't turn to look at you one day
And find myself married to an old man
What do age or years even mean in love?
I don't notice the differences
I worry more you will find yourself one day
Married to a child, immature, impulsive
Worry you will long for the stability
And wisdom I have yet to gain
Are we still together, twenty years from now?
Living happily ever after in our unorthodox fairy tale
Uncaring about the looks others give us
You look young for your age anyway

Maybe they don't care by now
Please don't make me open this letter alone
I want to be holding your hand as I undo the seal
Leaning on your shoulder, with no need for words
Maybe these dreams and wishes can't hold us together
But they brought us together
I hope that's enough

Author notes

My Jack O'Neill (Richard Dean Anderson) obsession strikes again. The man is seven months (to the day) older than my dad, for heavens sake. Why does he have to be so sexy?

    Sorry you didn't place. I would feel creeped out for you, marrying a guy half a year older than your dad.
    Great write!
    May your pencil stay sharp!

    Excellent

    an excellent write that holds a wish that dreams are made of. If love is that strong between two people age will never matter and hopefuly all being well in twenty years time your hands will be joined. Thank you for entering our contest good luck Brian.
