Whatever Works

In the damaged times such as today, making do with whatever you get your hands on is one thing, striving for and creating stuff to suit your needs is completely another.

When she needed a hug, a hug she got!

When she needed a good hearty laugh, she got just that..

And when she needed a shoulder to cry on, she had the pillow… all for herself!

And well once she was done with all the crying, she’d look back and think to herself

Whatever Works..

 

When there was pain, there was silent support,

When there was excitement there was tranquility,

When there was love here, there was a smile there.

When she needed to blabber, she had a ear

And then there were times when she was left talking to herself

Well.. Whatever Works..

When she needed safety, she had an arm around,

When there was fun she needed, he’d become  clown,

When she needed comfort, like a quilt he’d engulf her

And when she would ask for attention all the highs would come down…

Time and again she’d go back to the original thought..

We were to live our own lives, happily with the other one, not live their lives!!

Was it so difficult to remember?

Would asking not burden her own self if she had to face it?

Even if it didn’t, it did burden him and the deal was;

Whatever works!!

And they lived happily ever after 🙂
