you did not just look at her,
you stared at her
-as you held her against
your chest
and i listened
as you sang
our song to her,
murmuring the lyrics
to her ears
my love, i promise i will find someone who
will capture my eyes
with theirs,
someone who will hold
me close to their heart,
someone whom i will rewrite our song to,
someone who will listen
as i let the rewritten
lyrics spill past my lips
