Hope

(Counting the days #25)

(my chalk marks on the wall of our days apart)

Day 25, Free verse:

You’re so far away,
and it’s so busy there,
so much to do,
so many people to see,
and less time for us,
but you assure me I am still important.

I believe you, I trust you,
honest to god, I’m trying.
I’m struggling to feel worth it,
but it feels like I’m breaking down sometimes.

I know you don’t love me,
but I could love you enough for both of us
if you would let me.
There’s nothing else I can do
but give you every reason to come around
and hope.
