The Towel

A towel asked, a towel brought,

but not quite placed the way I thought. 

I long for care in little things, 

thoughtfulness in what he brings. 

 

Don\'t control me, sharp and fast

as if control is my ask. 

I only mean, \"Please see me too —

the how is part of love my coo.\" 

 

Small moments turn to silent wars, 

yet underneath, my heart implores: 

not just a towel on a hook, 

but proof he sees inside my book.
