Relationships
I was about to toss you out. End our years of coexistence.
Reminiscing helped me see you in a new light. Made me realize how good
you’ve been to me.
Through difficult as well as good times you were there for me. Your
goal to please was simple. You aimed to brighten my dark evenings and
make me feel safe at night when I couldn’t sleep.
I’m thankful for your enduring warmth. For without you, I wouldn’t
have been able to orientate myself in these surroundings. Nor read my
favorite books.
Lamp I’ve owned for countless years, we belong together.
