7 years married

So sorry, grumpy bear. This morning
I awoke on the wrong side of time
sudden teenage and embarrassed
and changing and angry. It was me now. 
Yet...it's also the whole world till now.
Today the ball-and-chain metaphor
felt real. For you and I. Want to say
it's your fault. But it's not. But it
     isn't mine either.

So sweet, baby man. This night
you called me on the phone brief
and you were boyish and clowning
and fun and kind. It was you now.
Yet....it wasn't the whole you till now.
Tonight the soulmate cliche 
felt real. For you and I. Want to say
it's your fault. But it's not. But it
      isn't mine either.

You awoke on the wrong side of time too.
    It was a Full Moon in Sagittarius you know.
