value of love

how valuable
is my touch?
when you are in pain…
when you can’t sleep?
how much worth do you put
on my kiss?
to show you love
heal your wounds
bring you peace?
the soft essence of my love
around you
the very woman in me
that I put into every small thing
every big thing
that I do
ways to bring you love
show you home
surround you in comfort
does that have value?
does it cross your mind
when you decide to shatter it
taint it?
destroy it?
for meaningless, thoughtless
bits of nothing
that you had before me
and never brought you home
or comfort
this tells me
you do not see the value in me
in my very person
that I deserve better
for the home I have given
the heart I have shown
the love I have shared
I can’t keep fixing
what you keep breaking
