...there’s a quieter version
...of you
...that you rarely show
...to others
...but show to
...me
...each & every day
...your silhouette on Sunday
...mornings looking out the window
...you’ve made us coffee
....and your love notes
....clash with the person
....you show to everyone else
...I thank you for giving
...that side
....I shall guard it like treasure
...always on the watch
...never to be relieved
How could I ever use such beautiful words
Against
You
My fortress in the forest
Of evergreen emerald
