don't leave me

I've lost track of how
long I've had
that bag of frozen peas
in the freezer.
years, maybe.
petite green peas, no less.
they give
me comfort though,
opening the door
each day to take out
an ice tray.
seeing them in there.
snuggled against
sweet corn and cut carrots,
also frozen.
i'd miss them if they'd
go.
