Motivated to try and inch up
getting close means the trigger source
will be there to touch and play
with a string of heavy demands
commanding time and attention
to be exclusively ours.
In other words,
what I meant to say
was go ahead and come close
tiptoe there on the edge,
so that eyes are up into eyes.
These are our first times
even if, we’ve been here
a thousand times before
you ever decided to move.
From this night forward
guard our forever bond
don’t let it get stolen
from distracted hands.
From this and that
make today your favorite mission
change everything if you must,
make the pleasure in giving
a part of your daily plan.
You and your lists
keeping track of the minutes
until we’re back in position
that place where one simply gives
while the other takes.
