I
crave you
Just
to cuddle
Just
to eat circus peanuts with
I
know there’s a significant other in the picture
I
know I too often cross the line without a parachute or backup plan
My
ulterior motives come with their own Wet-Nap® and I swear when you got into your
most comfortable pair of pj's I’d go do a crossword puzzle in the next room
“Something
there is about you that strikes a match in me”
That’s
a Bob line of course and I’ve borrowed it before
He
knows just what not to say and how not to say it and that leaves me forever in
stitches, waiting in the emergency room just another casualty of the battle of
the sexes
You’re
irresistible
Crime
noir come to life
An
action painting dripping its moonlight all over the white and black checkered
floor
I
know I don’t stand a chance, but that’s okay because being an underdog suits me
just fine
This
poetry seems to elude just about everyone except for you
That
makes me smile because I know I must be doing something right if I am reaching
someone as unbelievable as you
