Each moment we exist is one minute less we have to live.

Each moment we exist is one minute less we have to live.

My partner Makedah Bat Leah is the best partner there could ever be

She helps groom me and dress me

She is blind and yet her fingers see more than those with eyes can see

She makes my medical appointments and make sure I am there on time

She helps me in and out of the tub and dry my body

She is there to cuddle and comfort me when I breakdown in tears

Reminding me we are but poor ass Niggers in everyone's eyes

We do not live day- to- day  but exist from day- to- day

 

Micaiah Ben Malachi is the kindest partner there could ever be

He is there to give me advice and watch my back

He protect me from those who seek to harm me and from myself

He loves me for me and not my body but all I can be if given a chance

He loves me unconditionally and never betray my trust

He holds and cradle me in his arms when I am frightened

Even if he knows the odds are against us making it in this world

He gets up and try anyway

He knows if we  exist from day-to-day then death is knocking on our door
