Offspring

He is a part of you 
A part of you
That I hold 
That I hold on to

Unusually a pleasure
Occasionally 
He’s mildly combative
Always more personable
Than I could ever be

That he is attractive
Is such a treasure
For I, at my age
Can see it could well last 
Beyond all of my forevers

& because he still loves you
(I assume so)
I might replay that love
Better that, than never so
