You're still lovely but
Nobody would die for you
Like all the rest
But more important than them too
Put together
Because I took care
Stayed up late
Killed bugs
Listened when complained to
Showed lovely songs
Made sure to keep living
Because
My responsibility
The time you spend with anything makes it so important
I'm responsible
And tonight, thinking about that time
Remembering you said, you told me, or read aloud
The stars are beautiful because of a flower you can't see
And I thought I understood because we sat on the beach and looked up
And saw nothing and heard nothing
