I'd love to see your room
I'm sorry
was that a bit too upfront?

I'd like to see your room
but only if that's okay with you
I would enjoy knowing
where it is you display your perfume

I would like to see your books
please show me all your silly knick knacks
and your cozy nooks

I love seeing how you have stacked
your ***** and clean laundry on a chair
you shoved it off of it for me

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to stare
at this picture of you and your niece
why on earth do you have the packaging framed of your favourite cheese

I love seeing all these bits and pieces
of what makes you, you
I know it does not show me all
but at least it gives me a clue

please do not clean or tidy your room for me
please just let it be

my mother told me it is childlike
to have a wish like this
but seeing someones bedroom, to me
is more intimate than a kiss
