you’re where i run to when i’m homesick
all the company i need when i get lonely
the place i lay my head when i’m fatigued
you’re my favorite book to read
your body’s my favorite language
my job’s to stay fluent
every word you have is sacred
you’re steering the wheel
i’m the vehicle
you’re driving me crazy

you’re my glasses; necessary to aid my vision
the first thing i reach for each morning
i’ll be your journal, a safe space
as your secret would be
you’re safe with me

as pb is to j
as o is to k
we belong together 
like pineapple on pizza
