on being your home
you speak of missing home.
and in all honesty,
i cannot help but want
to be that for you.
allow me to be your home.
let me be your safe haven.
your place of comfort.
when the heavens decide to cave-in,
i will be your shelter.
as the autumn falls upon us,
i will be the flame keeping you warm.
i will be your needs.
i will be your wants.
i will be your home.
you don't have to ask.
when all is wrong,
i will make it all right.
because you do that for me.
you can tell your mother
not to worry.
i will take care of you
in every way
that you might need.
is it fine to say,
your needs
are my wants?
