My head on your chest
Seems absolutely appropriate
I can’t believe how free of stress
When I am with
Barely know
you
But I want to
Would like to
Be one of two
Who sing the same tune
And occupy the same room
Minister to
One another
Like more than a sister and brother
Lovers
Above and beneath the covers
Trembling school dazed crush
Excited rush
Turning me into mush
Like how you whispered hush
When you made me moan
Right after you found a home
In my heart
Where you must have planted a seed
Filled a need
From the start
