look at my new bitmoji,
why won’t that boxing workout stream on my TV?
when you come home next I want to make pizza
going for a walk with Brenda, talk to you later
give me a call, just one quick question
forty five minutes later I’ve forgotten the answer

twenty six years of ongoing frustration
annoyed with every call, text and suggestion
then one night as my whole world shattered,
they’re the only ones that seemed to matter

conversations that felt more like annoyance
saved my life & reminded me of what’s important
