Tell me again that it was fun
when your dog
barked at a leaf blown by the wind
and I got scared
and slipped on the sidewalk.
Tell me again that it was fun
when to rescue me
you quickly crossed the street
and a car, in order to avoid you,
crashed into a street-lamp
passing over a puddle
soaking you from head to toe.
Tell me again that it was nice
when your dog licked my face
and you told me with your eyes
that it couldn't have been a coincidence
that we have met this way.
Tell me again
that spending all these years together
and continue to do so
is the most beautiful thing in our life.
Tell me again you love me.
