You drink your coffee
And I drink my tea.

The room is filled with soft silence
When you ask me to read you a poem.

I take the book of poems

Off the very top shelf.

I open to my favorite
page.

I read the beauty of the words
Though I have already memorized them by heart.

But you aren't even paying

Attention to the words.

Your'e paying attention
To the girl

Reading them.
