Today's episode made me put my thinking cap on. I thought a little bit about love. And what it makes us do. And how it makes us tick. I thought to try something different from my usual style. Hope you like it.š Its free verse, which I am totally not used to. Anyways, read on and tell me what you think.
What is love?
Is it the tiny spring my heart gives
When I catch an unexpected glimpse of you?
Is it the steaming cup of chai you
Have waiting for me when I come home at the end of a long day?
Maybe it's the pretty pink pillow covers we bought together,
even though you hate pink. (and I love it)
Or is that too prosaic?
Maybe it's the little dent in your chin
That deepens when you look at me like that.
Like you could look at me forever. Like I am
The only person in the world, even though
We are in the middle of a crowded party.
As we sneak a quick kiss, when the children
Aren't looking. Or are pretending to sleep.
Your mouth over mine, hot breaths mingling.
A familiar comfort steals over me.
I wonder what I would've done without you.
And I realize that I couldn't have
Done without you.
Without you I am merely another cloud
Maybe I had a silver lining. I don't know.
With you, I am the silver cloud.
