Fugue

it's absurd about how much I love you

There's something about the way you whisper in my ear our future plans

that makes me want you closer because I just want your pianist hands

to cup the rib caged bird that is my heart fluttering between us

while I quietly give blessings to all the girls before me who created the opus

that is you, the man I know I'll one day marry, my very best friend.
