What I Like
What I like is to be held, loved and cuddled,
Awaken in the morning, my head all muddled
Coffee, black and strong, just how you make it
Even though it’s not how you take it
But you know me better than I know myself
You know what’s good for me and for my health
Breakfast of toast, two slices, buttered with jam
Always warm no matter how late I am
You straighten my tie and flatten my hair
Pick fluff of my jacket I didn’t know was there
Then a hug and kiss as I walk out the door
Hanging on to you for a few moments more
The smile on my face during morning commute
As I try not to rumple my best three piece suit
I move through the day like an automaton
Fervently wishing my work hours were gone
So that I can return home to you, to my secret life:
My beautiful, sexy bigamous wife.
