newness

for what feels like  

the first time

(in a long time)

i’ve met someone

 

and  

everything’s exciting

 

it’s thrilling

exhilarating

 

      to just

        be myself

          around him

 

and

i want to do nice things for him

 

i want to take off his shoes

make him tea

i want to draw ****** drawings of him

with sharpies

on napkins at parties

 

and i long to bring him home

go on long walks alone

with him

i wish to

write songs in his name

give him my earphones

(when his break)

 

and

we’re an

unlikely pair

             and there’s

                    something

                        so infectious

                               about that

Notes

it's not often

that we find people

who we can truly be

ourselves with

allow yourself to

love completely
