i have this special plan of showing up
at your doorstep at seven am
with donuts and your Peppermint Mocha Frappuccino
and an extra-tight hug.
You'd tease me again for only drinking tea
and that's okay.
Maybe i'd run my hands through your
messy bed hair and tickle you for revenge.
good morning, i missed you.
i would just smile at you and tell you
that i'd like to take you someplace secret
and we will drive away with
the windows down and the wind laughing at our faces
and we will turn the music up and sing
at the top of our lungs
"Whatchu gonna, whatchu gonna do
with that dessert?"
and I'd steal glances at you from the
rearview mirror and think,
how you have absolutely no idea
how much you make my life a lot sweeter.
i want to just spend hours and hours with you
away from everything that makes us so tired and restless.
no schedules, no deadlines.
and then maybe we will just fall
asleep next to each other,
dead-tired and beat from the weight of the
world's expectations
but we will be okay.
we are the best of friends
and you,
you bring out the best in me.
i would take pictures of you sleeping
and when you wake up you will see your
face on my phone's lockscreen.
because i am clingy like that.
because i can't get enough of you.
because if i could save your entire
existence in my heart's memory card,
i would.
i dream of taking you to carnivals
