For Granted

A phrase that I told you I would never speak
A feeling that my heart couldn’t help leak
You are true, sometimes I forget
My memory, sometimes I let
out
A soft, gentle breeze
When you live on the beach
Learning something new
but you know how to teach
A view of the mountains
that you see every day
A wondrous city
and you only live a few miles away
Drinking, eating, being able to walk
laughing, thinking, being able to talk
Seeing you every day and not telling you
how very special you are
for granted is what I sometimes take you for
but rarely and certainly not intentionally
because I couldn’t love you more
