you stare at me
like you’re trying to learn
i stare at you
like i’m in unbelief
you’re starting to know who i am
and i’m starting to know how to teach you
by loving you
and by loving you
you become more and more each day
who you are meant to be
without agenda
just response
to every day
and every day, you learn
while every day, I’m in unbelief
that every day, you are learning to love me
