The first and only time
I sat through a musical, was for you—
and then, I heard that song, in that scene,
and knew you’d have loved it, too…
As I re-round to listen, so many times—
my chin began to crumble—
and my eyes immediately soaked
in the biggest tears—
tears so heavy and so hot—
that they cannot stay
inside the wells
and just slide straight down
melting tracks
against the cheek
and awash the neck
if only to prove
how much—
I love you.
