we are swans

there is never a time
i’m not thinking of you

i can’t tell if that’s how it should be?
if i should instead be cleaning my house
or unpacking my boxes
or tending my yard

but i suppose it doesn’t really matter
because you’re there
in my mind
each moment of each day
of each week
and each month

we are swans
gliding softly
on the surface
of this love
managing the balance
needed to keep the water still
yet strong
