A Haiku - Caregiver
May God bless our home.
One more day, please.
Another day dawns.
How long can my love survive?
My heart still cares now.
Wash, dress, feed, answer;
The drumbeat of every day.
Like a pulse of heart.
Is today that day,
The day when help comes for me?
Twice each week it comes.
My heart skips a beat
On those precious few, grand days.
Not today, I know.
I'm repaying love.
Love given me as a child.
More than duty still.
I love you so much.
It's a trap we both share now.
Love locks the door out.
