Relationship

Let's not have a relationship of slothful Sunday evenings
And wrinkled, crimson bedsheets;
Woeful neighbourhood diaries and midnight office ravings;
Perfect couple pictures and ethereal wall-paintings;
Savory, wrapped flowers and sleek cardboard greetings.
Let us never bring each other
Things that wither away,
Objects that cost,
Happiness that's transitory.
Let us give each other
Ageless echoes,
Priceless smiles,
Perpetual feelings.
Let us tell each other stories,
Stories of pain, of longing, of lunacy.
Forget about custom, sense, loyalty;
Let's spill for one another
Craziness, Messiness, Vulnerability.
Let us stop looking for secrets and spaces,
Allow silence become a form of speech.
Let's not leave each other hollow, empty.
Let's fill our voids with yearnings and affinity.
Let's not just make a home;
Let's become each other's home is what I mean.
