Love is getting a big wet kiss from a dog even though you locked him in a cage all day


I hope she never notices how your smile

Twists up at the corners of your lips and crinkles your eyes
In that soft way that always made my knees shake.

I hope she never notices how you sigh
At the end of her name,
Like she is nothing more than an
Epitaph to what you've loved.

I hope she never notices how you run
Your hands through your short hair
When you are nervous. I hope she
Never gives you a reason to be
Nervous.

I hope she never notices how you
Bite your
Fingernails when you have
Something to say but don't know how to say it. You
Always did  that thing where you would pretend not
To care when you were secretly dying inside.

I hope she never notices the way
You hold her close when you hug her to your
Chest. You were always too good for her,
You were always too good for me.

I hope she never notices how you
Make her feel special.

I hope...
She never
Notices
You.
