There are so many things

to be worried about in this world

untied shoelaces,

the impending explosion of the sun, 

making eye contact with a stranger 

for too long

on accident.

So please,

please,

at the very least 

scratch one thing off of that list,

that ever-growing list of

inconveniences, inevitables, anxieties,

please,

never worry

(not even for a second)

that I’ll ever stop loving you

the way that I do now.
