I'll Quietly Love You

Poem.

Here,

 

take this bruised dollar.

I’ll sweep the shattered

picture frame under the

picture of you two, like

the last time, the picture

of that time you smiled

 

here

 

take this trampled coin.

It’s still hard, despite all

the footprints, despite

all the falls, all the times

it was dropped. I’ll find

space for these shards

 

here.

 

Take this torn euro.

It still has more value

than the dollar, even

though part of it has

been ripped off. Look,

how beautiful it still is.

 

Here.
