breakfast

you are everything i love

& everything i hate-

such a strong word

more of despise

like when you order waffles

& get pancakes-

enjoy this

but i will remember how you treated me.

so now- only order something simple

eggs hash an some juice

(& to whoever is watching from above

you bring me pancakes i’ll trot walk heavenly stairs

to find you)

to those who scream:

you can’t control the outcome,

you’re right- it’s not the goal

but if we can start the day the right way

i like our chances
