were you here

were you here

i would wrap myself around you
place my lips to yours
take the hat off your head and place it on mine
i would make love to you while wearing one of your shirts

were you here

i would cook for you, cracking eggs with one hand to make your breakfast

rub your back when i see the pained look
dry your eyes when you cry
never stop touching you through the night

were you here

i would remember to grab your glasses
care if you know where your slippers are
buy you chocolate for no reason
not take you for granted
be marvelously kind
love you better

i would remember never to forget you

were you here
