For Ron,
Who Won't Waste His Days In A Hospital bed
For Ron.

“Hey beautiful.”
You said to me
A grateful smile and I walk away,
Thanks for making my day
Look how the tables have turned.
“You’re growing up so fast.”
You said again
A red beach floating as our backdrop,
A pastel pink house, made with a cannonball heart
Look how it scares you to say that.
“I won’t make it…but at least…”
I overheard
I haven’t forgot,
You still owe me my own pastel pink house
This time, you didn’t strum on your guitar
This time, your warbling voice did not connect with the others
This time, you didn’t save me a dance
This time, was the last time.
I know I never told you
But I love you
And I’m going to miss you,
Look at how my eyes fill,
But I love you.
I’m not resorting to past tense.

You just got to see me through another day
My body's achin' and my time is at hand
And I won't make it any other way
