EMERALD CITY

I eagerly followed you down the seemingly endless yellow brick road
Lagged behind as you manfully strode ahead; did you care?

My disjointed body aching for relief
My anxiety rampant as I struggled to keep up

My desire to be with you overcoming all else

Flying monkeys – I  brushed them aside like all my doubts

No fear stronger than my fear of losing you
We'd played out this story so many times

Finally!
Our destination – The Emerald City

Where you first promised your love
Where we stood before the mighty Wizard who recorded our story for all to hear:

Proof of your love
    your love
         your love
               your love
               playing over and over and over
