It's a amazing to me
what a conversation can do
how you listen
how you respond
the way you accept
what I say as
worthy to be heard
even if you disagree
and how you do not make me feel
as if my world is fluorescent moondust
in a world full of dull mud
even when it is, or at least
you make me feel as if you
much prefer glowing dirt
Thank you for how you
make space for my weird
and kiss it on the forehead
caress my third-eye
with tenderness
remind me to see
beyond what is most
apparent, remind me
that I can and wait for
me to open wide
I love you
for these small things
and more
