Popcorn

When the world is at its darkest days,

Turn the light on.

When someone is lost,

Find them

Hold them

And assure them

I should've worked harder.

 I should've put the time in.

 If I did more I'd be number one.

 I should've been first.

 Nobody likes second.

Crescent moon eyes with cheeks bunched up below

A smile and laugh that creates warm swells

The small moments of interest you show

You ask what I am doing, so I tell.

You tease, I tease back — these moments cherished
