A Bottle and A Bottle Cap

A Love Letter

By Lea DelaneyPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

"We just fit well together

like a bottle and a bottle cap."

And I have the tendency

To daydream about you

And I know, despite the oddity,

What you say is true.

We fit well together

Whenever you hold me tight.

You say I'm just the right size

And I squeeze you until you groan

Because there's too much love

To feel it alone.

"We fit well together

like a bottle and a bottle cap

or a zipper and

the little zipper-hole-thing

that you put the zipper into,

It's called a zipper stop, I think."

We fit well together,

In the opposite ways we work.

The different ways we're strong,

And in the same things we love.

We argue about silly things

And talk about all we think of.

"We fit well together

like a bottle and a bottle cap...

or like a shoe lace and an aglet

or a paper clip and a sheet of paper"

Or a dream and a smile.

We fit well together

Because we're you and me.
