Our Routine
there we were again.
me and my willingness
to laugh.
you and your downward
gaze.
I helped you build a piece
of your future.
No matter how foolish
the task.
Water splashing on electrical
outlets.
Home-made
flame throwers.
But we continued anyway.
Just doing what we're told.
Liking it.
Hating it.
Washing away the
hand prints
of yesterday.
No longer allowed to touch
what isn't ours
even if we don't mean anything by it.
Such are the rules of
love.
Even something so unpredictable
has regulations.
a plan
we have to follow.
all starting with a ring.
her ring
and your eyes.
both shine with the promises of
tomorrow.
