Love

Love is still being committed to each other...

-when you can no longer see well enough to point out the rebel and emerging nose or ear hairs,
-when you can no longer hear well enough to receive the gentle jibes or subtle flirting from your live-love,
-when you can taste that the dish they always make tastes different because they forgot the sugar or added it twice, and you don't say anything about it,
-when trembling you touch the leathery wrinkles make-up won't fix and it feels beautiful because of whose wrinkles they are
-when you smell the cologne or perfume they use and get excited because you know you have a hot date down the hall playing dominoes with another couple after supper, and a night together with no interruptions afterwards.
