Can we get away for just a few days? I would take even 24 hours if I got to spend it with you. Let’s go to a little cabin in the woods and stay up all night, making plans, making love, just being alive. I don’t want to miss you. I want to have time with you; make memories and take pictures and tell my friends about you. Be one of those cliches and wear your sweater for days. Wake up and just be. With you. Can we get away for just a few days?
from my second poetry book,
The Lovers.
