kitchen sink

Your hands are in the sink

They are dirty in the tub

Your back is bending to pick up my mess

Your clothes sweaty in the sun

We are writing a lifetime of love letters

Lost down the kitchen sink drain 

Can you grab me a glass

Do you wanna split
Would you rather stay in
Do you want me to get you anything 

Let me read you this

Have you heard this song

Have you eaten since

I can drive

What do you want to do

The dishes are done

Do you need ibuprofen

Do you wanna watch

Do you want help

I’ll be there in

How was your day

And I am astounded 

At the weight of glory

At every little moment movement and phrase

At the crushing cumulative 

Weight of a lifetime of love letters

Lost and found down the kitchen sink drain
