In the Mornings

I wake up and check the time

I check to see if you’ve messaged me

Nothing. Tomorrow perhaps.

I check my socials, messages from friends

Anything else I could think of

I get up and make my bed

I go to the bathroom to brush my teeth

And wash my face

So I can go on and start the day

In the Afternoons

I read a little

I’ll do things that make me happy

Passing the time in whichever way I see fit

I’ll think about your well being

Did you eat today?

Are you having a good day?

Are you happy? Sad? How are you passing the time?

It’s a nice day today as usual

Maybe we could go out for a walk

Or eat somewhere new

I often think about how we would spend

Nice days like today

When nothing happens

And we’re free to just spend time together

In the Evenings

When I go to work

The day either goes by quick

Or slows down to a crawl

Regardless, I’m staying busy

I imagine you coming in to see me

Maybe you came by really quick

Because you wanted to see me

Or maybe you remembered what time my lunch was

So you brought us something we could eat together

While we chat during my break

It’s nice to think about

But I have to get back to work now

At Night

Is when I think of everything

The past, present, future

The things I’ve done wrong

The things I’ve done right

And I always think of you without fail

I think about what you’ve done today

How your day has been

If it went well and if you were safe

I think about you every day and every night

You’re always on my mind

I know who you are

But

I don’t know who you are

What I do know, however

Like clockwork

Is that I always think of you

More than you think of me
