Let the empty boxes sit for a while,
Let their emptiness fill our new beginning.
This is what we've always dreamt about,
Waking up and sleeping in without having
To say farewell just hello, good morning and goodnight.
Let the palette of my clothes compliment yours
Let us fill our closet with rainbow.
But let us not let them stay in the closet alone anymore,
Let us wear the colors of who we are
High and proud, for this does not define us, no.
Not even the people we choose to love.
Let us intricately hand pick the articles that'll fill our dream house.
Let us paint the walls with harmony and respect
Let us stuff the shelves and cupboards with trust, safety and comfort
Let our love settle in all the corners of this reality we have made.
And if ever the water's rough and the going gets tough,
That it trembles the walls we built and weakens our knees.
Hold my hand dearest, we are not against each other here.
This is our home, we are partners, lovers and best friends.
We are not going to fight each other for absolution
We are going to make it work, we are each other's team.
We are each other's home.
So let the empty boxes sit for a while.
The suitcases too, let their emptiness fill our new beginning.
For this, is what we've always dreamt about.

RomansaLike the ships in the night that we are. This is what happens After we say goodnight. As we succumb in the safety of our quilts under the moonlight. -Compilation of Poetry-
