don't expect the unexpected

Whatever is unlikely
the receipt unexpected
a handful of kind words

waiting for perfection
days and weeks are lost
they fell like eternity

is it all so valuable
we need a compact
to share a future

never wait for the prize
no matter how valuable
take your own advice

there are life events
there are partnerships
worth any sacrifice

what keeps us going
in the face of adversity
what feeds patience

Can you answer
these things provided
by accident, on purpose

the little victories
the special moments
are worth the price

and where should life
take you or take me
if not where we belong

understanding you
understanding me
understanding us

what do you think
the prize should be or
the sacrifice required

the fuel of patience
is maturity, occasionally
it is the unexpected xo
