I sent your gift through soap and suds
Looks battered and short shrift
The smile on your face
The sureness of your grace
While I was throwing duds
I dropped a pendant, a symbol of trust
Still pondering where it might have went
You seem disappointed
Though not afflicted
As I sat there and cussed
I broke a picture frame, Shattered the glass
As I hid away, and in you came
A long pause and awe
Your open-wide jaw
I felt like such a *******
You take pity on me nonetheless and shrug it off
You say, “It’s okay” As others stand around to scoff
While you relieve the distress of my dismay
What a person, so loving
That is why I hold them so close
Everyone else, pushing and shoving
When I was the one you chose
