New Poetry

[Venusaturn]

Heyo heyo. Some of you might remember me from wayyyy back when lol

It felt illegal to revive any topics that’ve been dead since the pandemic, so I figured it wouldn’t hurt to start a new topic, haha

Feel free to share any bits of poetry you’ve found yourself penning in the recent days. You don’t have to be a poet to post! I know that I’m really the farthest things from a poet; I enjoy it, but I only dabble in it here and there. I write fiction most often, however, I find myself writing the odd poem now and then, and I wanted to have a place to share with others without pressure or expectation.

So here’s a piece of my odd poetry.

I hope you enjoy it, haha

Feel free to interact or leave it be, or post a piece of your own. I’m not active almost at all anymore, but I’d love to come back to see everyone’s love of the written word and life around them put down onto the page.

I wanna live with you

Move in with you

Make home with you

.

I wanna come home from class every day and find you there

Doing dishes at the sink

Or making a snack for yourself

And I want to curve my arms around your waist

Lean in close

Say hello

And pepper little kisses to your neck

.

I want to be there when you come home from work

Tired and hungry and wanting love

I want to rise from the couch

Cross the room

And let you fall into my arms

Dinner is ready

And I’ve got all the time in the world

Just to take care of you

Just to love you

.

I want to steal your pretty clothes here and there

And give you as many gifts as I can

And cuddle you for hours on a couch that belongs to us

For as long as it takes for us both to feel human again

.

Every night I want to fall into bed

And you’ll be there too

Snuggled up close

As we talk about our day until we finally drift off to sleep

And never once will we wake up, gasping for air

Scared and alone

Because we’ll be there for each other

Always

.

I want to wake up

And the first thing I see is your beautiful face

Right next to mine

Still sleepy and sweet

And ready for the day ahead

.

We can handle today

Because we’ve got each other

.

I wanna go grocery shopping with you

Make funny jokes as we wander the aisles

Never unlink our hands

Never stray to far from the other

Making the most of our domestic little life

I’ll kiss you on the cheek

And you’ll crack a joke in the produce section

And things will be so grand

.

And people might look at us weird

But I know I for one could care less

Because I’ve got you

And you’re my everything

And nothing can hurt me when I’m with you

.

I wanna do chores with you

Make the most mundane things in life enjoyable

Listening to our favorite songs

Played on our turntable

Echoing through our apartment

As I do the laundry

And you sweep the floor

.

I wanna buy you flowers

And find pieces of jewelry that I think you’d like

While out thrifting in my favorite places

And be able to bring it home to you

And not worry about the cost of shipping

Or think about the distance between us

.

Because you’re right there

And that’s all I need

And I can love you here

And not hide under my blankets at night and think about the days

When we spent the nights together

Snuggled close to keep warm in the basement

And watching our favorite shows

And missing you so greatly

It feels like a hole is tearing itself in my heart

.

Because you’d be right there

And I’d be right here

And our space would be shared

Because this is our home

I wanna live with you
