and i just wonder
what itd be like
to fall asleep
in your arms
night after night
our heartbeats in sync with one another
and your warm breath on the back of my neck
with the sounds of the night
singing softly to us
itd be pretty great,
wouldnt it?

youre like that one creaky spot
on my hardwood floor
that i always try to avoid
but seem to forget
and accidentally step on it anyway
youre like that third octave E
on my old piano
thats just barely out of tune
but still makes the chords sound wrong
youre like that flower
that got stuck in my hair
when those kids tripped me
during recess in 3rd grade
youre like that random key
i found underneath my bed
that i never found the lock for
youre like that cold
that i caught
in the middle of july
youre like those scratch off tickets
that i buy each week
even though ive never won
and even though theres a good chance
that i never will

a melody i listened to once
and never forgot
every night
i long to have you
send me to sleep
as the sound of it
slowly fills the room
with its sweet chorus
leaving me breathless

night-time was her favorite
bc shed look outside
and see fireflies lighting the sky
in the same way his sweet words
would light her heart
and she remembered
she remembered how much
she loved him
and she wanted to embrace him
in the same way the ocean
embraces the shore
with salty tears
after having been separated for so long

she fell in love
with his cloudy eyes
and intellectual mind
yet she did not know
she loved him
she fell in love
with the way
he talked
and listened to her
yet she did not know
she loved him
she fell in love
with the way
he reminded her of the ocean
always changing his mind and mood
like the tides
leaving her breathless
and confused
and yet she still did not know
she loved him

and i just wonder
what itd be like
if we went for coffee at 2am
on a rainy, tuesday morning
would you tell me about your day
your thoughts
your feelings
or would we sit
in blissful silence
until the sun started to rise
and when our last sip was gone
would we part ways
and leave the other wondering
"is that love"
