I don't think you knew I don't like cherry-flavored things.
I know that you didn't.
How could you have?
I never told you.
I like real cherries
But not cherry flavor
But you saw it and thought of me
Because I like sweet
Because I like candy
Because you thought I was going to be sad or upset so you
Pulled it out of your pocket when I wasn't looking
And surprised me with it
And I was happy
Even though it was cherry
I didn't tell you
And maybe I won't eat it
But I'll keep it
And I'll stare at it and smile and think of you
Until it rots or I do,
Whichever is first
I'll keep it
And I'll smile
And I'll think of you
