I Want Us

I want us to walk To a place we had, months ago To access that instinctive calm That warded off all calamity And be who we were. I want us to sit As we had on 'our bench' With your mass, rested on my lap And finding comfort in fingers, interlocked Holding onto moments, we knew would be irreplaceable. I want us to look At a view that once captivated us With our eyes swaying back and forth And realising at their meet, the romance reflected Sighting chemistry, we knew would be unmatched. I want us to converse As we had fluently before With our minds expanding through each word And foolishly making remarks, that warranted apology Engaging thought, we knew would be recalled. I want us to love As we had when we first sprouted With us promising to each other, all we could afford Asking only of presence, in return Growing a togetherness, we thought would never part.
