I Will Always Be There

You know me by now,
I don't want anything,
Throw an extra spoon of sugar
in my coffee,
add some cinnamon if you don't mind,
"You will get sick" you reprimand me
for walking with naked arms,
it is cold indeed but your hands stroking me
is warm beyond my flesh,
Offering a jersey I will never ask for,
I don't need money or favor,
I came to collect you for our afternoon walk,
I don't need a juice or a lunch on our way,
I need you to talk,to laugh and find a connection
between me,the sun and later the moon
when we kiss.
I will always be there
