absolutely wonderful

i was angry
laden with packages
hurt by the world.
he was waiting
and all i could do was cry.
i've got love wrapped up in this big box, you've just got to untie the ribbon,
he begged
handing me his heart
and all i could do was choke down sobs.
i've got a dance up my sleeve every time you want to leave
he took me on his feet and
all i could do was move with him.
i've got a lifetime of jokes, arms full of hugs and eyes full of
you
he pulled me close
and all i could do was forgive him
for doing absolutely
nothing
for being absolutely
wonderful.
