Thoughts Too Early For Thursday
If you ~
hold me close
carry me in your pocket
sing me to sleep on Sunday
wake me behind tomorrow
If you ~
hold starry diamonds in highest esteem
shuffle your feet when dreamless tears fall
chuckle when I speak as I write
do your algebra homework
If you ~
look beneath what your eyes
tell you
tell me your truth as though I already
know
If you are who I see,
I am yours.
