A Tiny Boat
I loved you.
But it bothered me
how often I had to remind myself
that I loved you.
There is no love in the forgetting of love.
Love is not a well, to be dipped into
to quench an intermittent thirst.
It is a sea, with three unknown sides,
on which we set out in a tiny boat
aimed toward the sun.
