Today i want

to write happy stories

stories that click and light up

as you turn the switch on

with your oh se deep affection

I want to caress your balding head

with the touch of my hand and fingers

my lips kissing your ear

and my warmth healing your nerves

I don't want to want too much

it creates expectations so unrealistic

and I miss out on you when you come out

like a snail lazily peeking from under its shell

You are beautiful, husband

and I am glad I exist

in the same world

just to lift you up
