people these days want rings that shine
and smiles that do even more so
but they are so selfish.
so god-damn selfish.
turning their tongues around lies so pretty
that even brides wear them
on their wedding days.
people want so much, but a basket with
a hole in the bottom fills as much
as two hands with fingers spread wide.
nothing is ever enough.
all i know is that if i were to wake up
next to you every morning
and slip into your slippers that you have
placed on my side of the bed
because you know my feet get cold
and i know that means you love me
then i will never need
another
god-damn thing.
