True Love

When you marry
You think you are so in love
But love contains hardships
That go hand in glove

It's easy to love someone
Who is pretty and sweet
Perfect hair and nails
Clothes perfectly neat

The test is when someone
Loves you when your not at your best
When your tired, crabby
and emotionally stressed

They put on some tea
Give your shoulders a rub
light scented candles
Put bubbles in the tub

After a baby and surgery
They help you out of bed
Tenderly bathe you
And kiss the top of your head

They don't care you feel ugly
Fat and undressed
They hand you your baby
And make you feel like the best

They stand with you always
Through good times and bad
Through rough times and sorrows
That make you so sad

Through elation
Depression
Craziness too

They love you no matter
the things that you do

So true love is a measure
Of all of those things
Staying strong through the trama
That only life brings
