Addition

Updated: Jul 8

When you plus and minus 

All the reasons that I love

The way you smile

It ripples and weighs heavily

On my heart

That I have not added your charm

To my necklace

It seemed too easy

And I realized the slope line

Is hard to solve for

When you only want to

Keep all the apples

And oranges in your basket

Grabbing more and more

Personalities to try and seem

Fuller than I really am

The fact is that there isn’t much to

Gain from keeping your smile

On my heart

Worn out from all the times tables that

I have to solve for

Again and again
