Poem: 'Tis the little things...
63
'Tis the little things
That I remember
From the times that we spent in sweet surrender
'Tis the minutiae
That makes me hunger
For you and the love that we shared together
*
The way that your lips curl when you smile
To paint them in words will take a while
The glint in your eyes that lit my days
The mischievous looks in your angel face.
*
The way that you hook your arm in mine
The way that you mess my hair, divine
The look in your face as you trim my nails
The tears that you shed when something fails
*
'Tis the little things
That I remember
From the times that we spent in sweet surrender
'Tis the minutiae
That makes me hunger
For you and the love that we shared together
*
The obsessively neat and tidy rooms
Music you choose to chase the gloom
The toasts that you burn but make me eat
The screams of pleasure at tickled feet
*
The way that you hurt when I am mad
The hugs that I get when I am sad
The way that you curl up when you sleep
The simple gestures that reach so deep
*
You told me
I'll find another
To love and to care and to hold forever
Tell me sweet Will I ever
Forget the little things that I remember.
