I found a poem I wrote that gets this.... It's called Home
Let's get our own
place.
And cook and drink wine.
We'll pick recipes of the internet.
Our house will smell of yummy things we haven't
eaten yet.
We'll sit on the floor and eat of each other's plates.
Or share a plate because we're not done packing
yet.
Then we'll make love on our bed.
I'll make sure we start with that room.
With pretty sheets I picked.
Then we'll lie in each other’s arms.
And I’ll scream eek at your sweat glistened skin
that turned me on just a moment before.
You'll laugh. And we'll talk. You'll fall
asleep. Fall into a snore.
I'll get up and write in the study you built for
me.
And I’ll fall asleep, books open, laptop on.
Will you buy me a type writer so I don't deal
with the glare on the screen?
I hope you're not mad when you wake up and
realise I don't sleep that much.
When I do
sleep, it’s with nightmares and nothing nice.
I hope that you'll bring me coffee in the
morning before your shower.
And I’ll make you breakfast and adjust your tie.
Sometimes you'll come home and dinner will be
cold.
And so will my heart. But please
tell me you love me then. So I don't forget.
Because I forget, I really do.
I
forget that you don't like it when I'm passive aggressive or when I buy gifts.
Let's get our own place baby. Let's make it our
home.
