I talk to you like you’re past tense

And I know I shouldn’t

Because you are my present

Solely, completely,

I have little regard for who you are in the future

I can’t let myself

Not when there is so little time to call you my own

I wish I could tell you all of this now

But you were too tired

And your eyes crossed at my words,

I knew you were gone for the night

Hey there,

I know it’s late

I know

But I checked the weather

And it said there was going to be a 30 percent chance of rain, just like yesterday

When we got caught in the floods

I hear the drops hitting my window

And I want to tell you I love you

Yet I can’t bring myself to,

As I am worried it is only a side effect of the lightning and thunder

Reminding me of your embrace

See that’s the thing with him

I couldn’t get enough

I’d hug him and it felt like we weren’t close at all

You satiate me

You make me feel like I have enough
