Our Homes Are Different
I can hear you Your vibrating voice like a heartbeat as you dig your nails into my soft blanket Trying to find space In my space Staring intently At nothing Your little hips going back and forth Whine if I disturb you How did you get so good at making a space your own Completely forgetting that this space is owned How did you get so good At making a house your home How did you get so good At making a place your own
