Failure is not a word that men like to admit to.
On a list, it’s ahead of not wanting to commit to.
Still there are those times about which we feel bad.
Instead of achieving launch, we fizzle on the pad.
Love is understanding especially in times like these.
She’ll take you in her arms and put you at your ease.
She’ll whisper reassurance as you sit with your head hung.
Then, with a sparkle in her eye she’ll ask:
“Is there anything wrong with your tongue?”

Love is patient, love is kind.....until you got to the last two lines........it brought a smile and a little chuckle to my face. That is the way true love really is...love you now matter what. Maybe she didn't groan loud enough....Ha! Ha! Love goes both ways. I loved it.
