Everyone knows, a poem is for love
The kind of love that burns nations to ash
But after all this time, what's left to write of?
Pick up milk? The laundry? Take out the trash?
I remember nights when we could barely breathe
Wrapped tightly, trying to make our bodies one
Flesh, to understand what lay underneath
Each others' eyes. Is the mystery gone?
I love you like I love my duvet, or
My coffee, which you know I have to drink.
Though love is not the same, it is more
Than it was. You are my missing link.
And I will reach out in darkness each night
And hold you, perfect, sleeping, mine, and right.
