Love

Note: Inspired by Peter Gabriel’s “Book of Love”


It can get boring

But its weight on my shoulders can never assume a burden

He will teach me how to dance

And I will learn how to dance with him

And he will read to me

And I will love it when he reads to me

He can read me anything

And I will love it even more



It will have music in it

And its sound in my ears will always resonate in me

And he will sing to me

And I will love it when he sings to me

He can sing me anything

And I will love it even more

And he will give me things

And I will love it when he gives me things

He can give me anything

And I will love it even more

And he ought to give me wedding rings

And I will love it even more…
