Super Late Valentine's Poem


We do things for the people we love
That’s how it works,
how I understand love
as a 19 year old.
You drop everything
go help them
leave them notes 
write them letters
hey I was thinking of you
so I bought you this
give them space
and kisses or hugs
call to say hi
drive five hours for a visit
give them your coat
take nail polish off crummy toes
do the dishes 
go to work
die on a cross.
Love is about sacrifice.
