the amazing ability

you have to make me feel

worthwhile and comfortable

even when I don’t want to

continue breathing

is as important as any words you could say

after I hurt myself the day after the storm

and I know I have a long travel ahead

but I know how easy it is to

let all the little things go unsaid

and I got you a card

but it fell out of the flowers

and I made you a dinner

but I knew I was just not fast enough

among the mistakes I made

are the times I forgot to tell

you how thankful I am that you

are even here in my life at all

and no amount of rocky road

or curled up warm bath will express

how glad I am we found each other

once again
