"This Is What I Really Wanted to Say" by Bartlett Leber
This is what I really wanted to say:
Thank you.
Thank you for being a human, a good human,
a human who hears and heals and grows along.
This is what I wanted to say:
I am glad we got the plumber to fix the sink
and I got to move your noisy gum cleaner thing,
but also I kind of like sharing the other sink
with all your floss and shaving stuff and good smells.
This is what I wanted to say:
Thank you for the adventure for always saying yes.
This is what I wanted to say:
Yes.
