Since you came
I haven’t needed another-
closed all the shops in my heart
no more tourist- a lonley lurker looking for their old room;
just a mansion
for you.
Candles and sweets
I never want you to leave
I’ve never felt so full:
full on filling conversations
dining on our connection
resting on our full bellies-
looking up at our ceiling
counting the wrinkles on our palms,
your hands are so soft I fall asleep in this dream.
I wake to your voice
sleep to it
and crave it like the next meal.
