Restart

You.
You were a dream
that came true.

Much has passed
and we started over with a clean slate.

Every time you ask I feel the want to break down
and pour every single pain and joy
but I halt.
It is not that I do not trust you.
Maybe it is that I do not trust you.

I do not trust that you would not leave.
For you left, once.
And they all left.
That is what I do not trust you with
And not because I do not trust you.

I forgave and asked for forgiveness
What I do not do best
but for you I did
because I think you are worth it.
I hope you are worth it.

Much has passed
and we started over with a clean slate
Let us not make a mess again.

Plenty Done

I have done plenty
and a little bit more than plenty.
and not a word of gratitude crosses your lips.
I do not wish for much.

I do not ask to be showered with gifts
nor to be written a sonnet of,
nor do I ask to be thanked,
if doing so proves to be too difficult for you.

I do not ask for much
but only for you to not deny
that I have done plenty for thee
and a little more than plenty

I may not have given you gold or jewellery
But I have given thee the turnings of my clock
and it is as precious if not more.
Pray thy not forget.

Do not take this as I, asking to be Queen
I do not wish for much
but only to not be denied that I have done plenty
and a little bit more than plenty.
