In Summary - A Poem
He looks at me
Like I am showing him
Something
That can never be explained.
Like I am introducing him
To someone
That has no name.
I am wearing a
Dangerous shade of
Pink
And he is wearing
A coat
In a place where
Sunglasses are needed.
He asks me what it is
I am looking for,
And I whisper,
"So much,"
In reply.
"And you?"
"So little,"
Was his,
And I look at him
Knowing
There is nothing
I can do for him;
Knowing
There is nothing
I can do for
Us.
My husband looks at me
Like I am someone
New,
And I realize now,
There is nothing
I can possibly
Show him
That will click
For someone like him.
Because I am
Me
And he is
Him,
And that is what will matter
In the story of
Us.
