Jaded was my face before
you walked into our
favorite bakery.
I couldn’t ask the world
for more than to have you
sitting across from me.
The cookies and tea
aren’t as sweet
as when you look at me.
Months later,
I still wonder
how I got so lucky.
Honey, I can say in all honesty
that I haven’t loved any-
body this tenderly.
