Erogenous & Emotional Verses

46 - Carefully

You're my catalyst.

The valentine 

in my phone,

that I look at 

when we're both home alone. 

You know I'm looking forward 

to hearing the things you say,

I'm frankly 

impressed with the words you wrote 

in that book 

on that day. 

Your name is spelled a funny way-

That just means I won't forget it,

and are you a new kind of special?

The kind that 

holds me when I can't handle 

any of it. 

You're the waves of the ocean

with clothes that smell like

a new time in history

and the past is not quite dead to me 

but I can't balance 

the adults talkin' 'bout 

not tryin' to forget

while also 

puttin' themselves out 

there.

Madison, carefully,

you're my most peaceful dream.
