You Have Changed

You have changed.
I can see it in the gentleness of your touch.
The tenderness of your smile.
The love in your heart swells and
drops from your eye,
Quickly, you brush this diamond away.
In that you have not changed.
You have changed.
It’s in the little thoughtful things you do.
It’s in your red, sleepless eyes
at three in the morning.
You cannot conceal your pride
when our baby smiles up at you, her father.
In that you have not changed.
