i want to
love you
like a year
of saturdays
lazy days
where we stay
in bed
no expectations
no hurries
nothing but the need
between us

i want to
love you
like the first cup of coffee
on a saturday
morning
like breakfast in bed
then a stroll
through the park
where nothing is
half
as beautiful
as you

i could
love you
like a weekday
but that doesn’t
feel like nearly
enough
i could
love you
like a sunday
but by the end
you would be
anxious
and we
would be done

so let me
love you
like a year of saturdays
where we can do
whatever we want
without worry
without restraint
we can
satiate
our desire
and that
will be
more than
enough.
