i want the conversations every morning
with the aroma of coffee surrounding us,
with your eyes gleaming as they met mine,
with your humming melting my ears,
and with your teasing smiles
and your laughing eyes
as i watch you wash the dishes

i just want the comfortable life,
the one in which we stay togetherβ€”
i'll chat with you while you cook
and you'll chat with me while i plant daisies.
i may be clumsy
with fixing things around the house,
but you'll be there
so we can laugh about it together.

i don't care about fancy dinners,
out-of-town trips, or weekend getaways
i'm fine with reading books on a lazy afternoon,
or watching movies, chilling at night, with the blanket on
while holding our wine glasses,
or waking me up with a kiss on the forehead
greeting me with your gentle smile

i want someone to watch true crime series with
coupled with cuddles on rainy days,
or animated films with on the happy days,
or docuseries with a pint of ice cream at hand
on my moody days,
or variety shows on ordinary days,
just letting everyday pass in this mundane world

i don't need to be seen in rose-tinted glasses,
a pair of crystal-clear lenses is fine with me,
the ones where you can tell me everything
and know that i'll accept you no matter what
and guide you to what's right,
the ones where i can tell you everything
and know that you'll console me,
then scold me, then advice me afterwards.

i don't need gifts or surprises,
i don't even need to celebrate anniversaries,
i just want to spend a lot,
a whole lot of them with you,
so stay with me for a long time
and it'll be more than enough
for this heart of mine.
