A Match

You whisper to me when you are sad.

You love me more than Nirvana

I love you more than puppies

In the mornings, waking up beside each other

You look like a mad scientist

I look like a sleepy raccoon

In the nights when you are far away, I hold close your shirts, your gifts, your stuffed rabbit from your childhood

During the days when I am far away, you scroll through my pictures, asking for more, studying my face

I wake up with scratches on my back

You with bruises on your chest

You whisper to me when you are sad

I say nothing at all

You have apathetic tendencies

I get anxiety from grocery shopping

You like to make long playlists

I listen to them, and feel close to you

You and I

Somehow a perfect fit
