I want to be anywhere with anyone
Well not anyone, that's
not what i meant, i
just mean an anyone that
will fit this impossibly uniquely
shaped hole in my chest, the
one i stay up late over, worrying that
maybe there really isn't anyone
out there at all to fit it.
not anyone, just the right anyone
who can turn anywhere into home.
Well not anywhere, maybe right
here in this room with the little
christmas tree and me. the lonely
glenn miller records playing and
drifting up to me seductively, tugging
at my arms until i find someone to
slow dance into eternity with. or maybe
at two cafe chairs breathing into two warm
cups of coffee with our knees pressed
against a rainy window. in a library, the
furthest aisle of books where it will
feel like we are the only ones that exist
between the stories. in a sweaty, crowded
bar or club where the music is so loud
and the drinks so hard that you can
shout I LOVE YOU and i will never
hear and you will feel safe and brave
all at once. on the roof of a car
looking up at the starry night like a blanket
of blackness wrapped around us, with
little sparkling holes to breathe through.
but
i suppose anywhere would do, with the
right you.
much longer, and
i suppose anyone would do, in the
right place?
