there are days I need to remind myself

let me wake him still sleepy
made me tea

danced at our ex's wedding
cooked surprise pizzas
held me while I talked about my father
bought a silver teapot

walked me to the doctor's office
took my hand
made me tea

rumpled my hair as he walked by
brought me red roses
on Valentine's day
made me tea

hugged me on the subway station
on the way to see a play
tucked me in and kissed me goodnight

that there were all those other days
