A Birthday Tribute

This one goes out to the man who has done more than give me a song, but a lifetime of songs for the playlist.

Today, I wish to gift him a memory that will be played on until the end of time.

Each song assigned for the gifts of love exchanged between me and you; shared in our time together.

Our memories a duet recorded in life that we lived!

Secrets we shared through good times and shame.

The hard lessons we survived in time that were meant to beat us down.

The growth and love we have shared every day that we made the choice to show up.

There are no other words to say other than I love you and thank you.

But what do words really mean anyway when my love language is lyrical and poetic, so this playlist I give to you.

My favorite top 10 songs that remind me of the humanly different versions of you and all those things you do to put a song in my heart!

I know you know, and I don't need to explain.

Let memories of all the things you do play.

10. Anything GNR - You choose

9. The Joker - Steve Miller Band

8. The Middle - Zedd, Mauren Morris & Grey

7. A Little Bit Off - Five Finger Death Punch

6. Love me Dead - Ludo

5.  Tubthumping - Chumbawamba

4. Stuck in the Middle with You - Stealers Wheel

3. Rosana - Wax

2. Every song the girls and I made you grit your teeth through, EVER!

And coming in at number one on our soundtrack of life that will always define the moment your name tattooed my soul.

1. Fishing in the Dark - Nitty Gritty Band

I hope one day when you are old, (see what I did there old man?) looking back upon your life, my love was a poem rather than a scar, as written by your wife.

While the list goes on and there is more to tell, this is all the world needs to know for now. Thank you for the things you do and know I got your six.

Happy Birthday Jamie.

This one is for you.

May I forever be a poem upon your heart,

your nightmare in red
