His Words at Night
As you come home, around 11
I'm the first thing on your mind
you text me when you're back, take a shower
wait for my reply, eat, take an hour
The clock says 12:06am, you call me late
we talk and talk for hours
as you tell me how you wish to call me yours
the sweetness of your words, the depth in your voice
your admiration for me, your willingness to keep my trust
The time passes by, now around 2am
our conversation shifts more and more
as we talk about things from superpowers to calling a little one ours
you make me smile and laugh as your voice sooths me to sleep
I'm not sure what to do with you
or if there should be an us
but I want you so
I want you to call me yours the way you talked
in a call or home alone
ear to phone or pulling clothes
you have conflicted me, now I can only think of you
not the one I am supposed to
but I can't help it, I enjoy your presence
and you make me smile so let's talk a little while longer
