I do not

- I do not -

I do not blame you
for not knowing that my legs are shaved and soft.
i do not blame you
that even other parts are freed of hair.
I do not blame you
for my stupid wish to be pretty for you.

I do not mind
having cleaned the whole house.
I do not mind
having done the dishes.
I do not mind having bought eggs because you love one for breakfast.

I am not sad
that I bought new underwear.
I am not sad
about missing out on a night with my friends.
I am not sad
that I put perfume on my ankles.

I still do not blame you, although I do mind not being kissed good night.
But I am sad. That I love you – and you forgot.
