just one more day

i will do it for

the dogs i have not pet

the people i have not held the door open for yet

the stray cat who needs a friend

the lightbulbs that need fixing

the dishes and laundry to do

the lotion i have not finished

the shampoo and conditioner i still have

the box of tissues waiting on my nightstand

the show i have to finish

the bathroom that needs to get cleaned

the homework i have to get done

the deadlines i must meet

the ice cream flavors i have yet to try

the book i have to finish

the paintings that are untouched

the cashier who smiled at me

the people i talk to in class

the friends that greet me every school day

the family gatherings that need a taste tester

the support of my parents

the support of my siblings

the conversations we have

the laughs we share

the kisses we sneak

the love we hold
