I don't know you I don't know how you feel right now or how you feel about the current state of the nation I don't know how you like your coffee or whether you prefer drip over pressed I don't know the lyrics to your favorite songs or if you like progressive rock or indie I don't know your favorite restaurant or if your prefer Chinese takeout and fast food I don't know where your next adventure will be or if you prefer to stay at home I don't know if you like mayonnaise or whether you like mustard on your hot dog sandwich I don't know what you think about in the shower or what you think about when you're washing the dishes I don't know what keeps you up at night or if you're the kind of person who falls asleep right away I don't know your deepest most vulnerable secrets or your hopes and dreams and your crazy ideas what I do know is your heart and maybe they tell you you have no feelings that you can't be moved or touched but I know that not showing them doesn't mean you don't have them at all we have the same heart and that's okay everything will be okay.

Cold Hands, Warm Heart
I don't know you I don't know how you feel right now or how you feel about the current state of the nation I don't know how you like your coffee or whether you prefer drip over pressed I don't know the lyrics to your favorite songs or if you like progressive rock or indie I don't know your favorite restaurant or if your prefer Chinese takeout and fast food I don't know where your next adventure will be or if you prefer to stay at home I don't know if you like mayonnaise or whether you like mustard on your hot dog sandwich I don't know what you think about in the shower or what you think about when you're washing the dishes I don't know what keeps you up at night or if you're the kind of person who falls asleep right away I don't know your deepest most vulnerable secrets or your hopes and dreams and your crazy ideas what I do know is your heart and maybe they tell you you have no feelings that you can't be moved or touched but I know that not showing them doesn't mean you don't have them at all we have the same heart and that's okay everything will be okay.
I don't know about this poem but it felt good writing it.
