Poem

I want to be 
A part 
Of your safe haven 

Where I fill in 
The chair next to you 
Surrounded by your family 

I want to see 
How your face lights up 
Making jokes and telling stories from work 

And when you laugh 
Your hand 
pats my thigh

As our legs 
Are intertwined 
Underneath the kitchen table 

I want to see 
Your reaction 
When I blush

After your mother 
Asks what I like 
about you 

I’ll place my hand over yours 
That are on my thigh 
And I’ll tell her that 

“He has shown me 
That life can be 
full of color

That a man’s hand 
can be more 
Than just a weapon 

Cause when he drives 
He absentmindedly holds mine
And kisses it 

While I’m continuously glad 
All the windows are down 
To block out my heart racing 

He has taught me 
That simplicity 
Holds more weight in our mind 

Like how I have memorized 
The creaks in our floor 
On Friday nights 

When he makes dinner 
And I’m swaying my feet 
From sitting on the counter 

Or how I silently adore 
Every move he makes 
And try to hide the smile on my face 

With a glass of wine 
While wearing one of his old t-shirts 
That now smells like me 

He repeatedly has shown me 
That hearts  
Don’t have to falter with jealousy 

Amidst the whispers
And constant smirks 
From my past 

Or the desperate beckoning 
From girls 
With lip gloss smiles

Cause he has pulled out 
The chair next to him for me 
In his safe haven 

Where my blushing laughter 
And stories from this household 
Have created connections 

He always entwines
his legs with mine 
With his palm up on my thigh 

Waiting patiently for my hand 
Despite ever present 
Scars on my left wrist”

And his mother can hear 
the warmth
The thoughts covered in color 

In my voice 
Every time 
I speak of him
