I'LL BE GRATEFUL


Lip switches up at the flowers,
perhaps their color,
or her own bad day.
You can only walk off
and create, in your mind,
something that feels better,
not knowing that never
is when she'll thank you
for all the gestures;
spontaneous, warm
thoughts.
I thank you for her
until the day
I can do it for myself.
