should i tell you i waited all day

just to write more poetry about you?

but then i got sidetracked because these dumb conversations are maybe a million times better 

don’t mind me. i’m just relaxing deeper into your sunshine 

look at you, making me pull out the cheesiest love poems.

i really signed a text with “xo”, didn’t i?

i really planned your birthday gift three months early, didnt i? 

i’m in this deep - way, way over my head 

are you still treading water? 

i think i’d rather not ask yet, love.

but please

come in further when you can

i promise - the water’s fine.

i iiiiiii
