Notes About The Poem

with him

It doesn’t take a second
for us to find our rhythm
I’m totally locked in
the moment I’m with him
 
I feel the beat
like electric heat
whenever I’m with him
I feel complete
 
there’s no other guy
who can compete
as my pulse increases 
as if with sweet kisses
 
you can take it from me
I’ve got the receipts
we’ve been together for years
and I think he’s for keeps
.

I am both envious of your love, and more than a little glad for you of it. I’m sure Peter knows he’s a fortunate man. / Have you heard this Valentine’s Day poem? - Roses are red. My name is Dan. I have a gun. Get in the van. - Not quite Hallmark Cards worthy I don’t think. / Even your ‘simple’ pieces are a joy to read. Each stanza is like a Perugina Baci. / <3

Am I worthy of chocolate? I don't know. We're a good fit. We complete each other's sentences. When at the receptions we attend, we look at each other from across the room and just smile - for no reason and for 1000 reasons. I think of us like, he can show me the universe, and I can show him a world he'd never have gotten to see if he were still a poor boy in Malibu. We're both very lucky.
