Insist

He's the one you've chosen.
I am going to have to live with
That. All that I ask is that you
Not let him be unkind. I've seen
You put up with so many
Instances of disrespect from people
Who are close to you. Each one
Made me wince, and double back
To undo what was done, to say
How much you mean to me, to
Make sure you know what you're
Worth. We both can see you
Can't be mine. My loss is more
Than yours, I know. You have
Another. That's all right. Just
Be sure he is kind.
