Unbirthday

Let's celebrate another day
begrudgingly
because the sun will come out tomorrow
and we're in agreement
that we'd rather stay wrapped up
till it does

Wrapped in this half-sleep
half-wishing we were asleep but not really
sort of cocoon
that stretches individual minutes
to their breaking point
stretches reality till it snaps

There's nothing special about today
only that you're here
which is the sort of event
I'd like to honor
even as it becomes a non-event
becomes something other than what it is
