easy

With you, it's calm. 

A soft Saturday sky with the whole day to play.

Holding hands over the middle seat of a taxi that's moving through morning light.

The sound of your voice when it wakes up.

The way I am the first person to hear it. 

Autumn, in all it's golden glory

dozens of rainbows rooted in soil

if just for a season. 

With you, it's fun. 

A lighthearted touch that becomes more,

flowers taking bloom from my n*****s to my toes. 

We laugh and look at each other's eyes and ask 

"why"

which is to say "why me, why now"

as we giggle and get to know what feels good 

and what feels great.

With you, it's easy. 

One day I'll tell you that when I looked nervous,

I was really just incredibly grateful.

when a couple finds comfort in their togetherness, it is wonderful. Always something to celebrate.
