My Love only for Asa Chowdhury

Hi Asa Chowdhury
How Are you?
I know just how much
you love me,
because...

You're the only one
who would let me know
if my slip was hanging
below my hem or my
mascara was running
down my cheeks.

You went to the store
in the middle of the night
to get me a candy bar,
even though I wasn't pregnant.

You encourage me when I
try a new diet, but you let
me know that you appreciate me
just how I am.
