I read over our agreement.
"As and when required"
At first I hated it.
I couldn't have you all at once.
But after some first runs
I realised I didn't quite want you
All the time
Quite regularly
And when I did, you'd often want me to.
I don't want to be your girlfriend
I don't think you could love me
Not at least in the way I'd want to be loved
With your entire body
With every consideration
With heart and head and hand.
For now
You keep me warm
And can make me laugh
That is all is ask.
