BK Fam Poetry Night 2018

It wasn't when I met him
Not even when I met her
It wasn't when I told them
Not even when they met her

Carrying us over the seasons
And through holidays and birthdays
Into an engagement and a wedding
Did it happen then and that way?

It wasn't then that it appeared.
Settling in to a new chapter
Starting this new adventure
A never ending sleepover

It didn't happen on a certain day
Or even week or month
It just was there one day
Like it had always been

Some say created by commitment
Others the stories we share
It could have been the arguments
It could even have been the giggles

The thing that make us ours
This thing that crept up slowly
This thing that took time
Is a thing we call family

Created from broken dreams
Bringing together the imperfects
Weaving together our story
Creating beauty from the ashes
