Together



Tell me your long winded stories,
the ones where nothing happens,
tell me things that don't matter much
I want no declarations of love,
no gestures too grand to keep up.
I want the dull the mundane the everyday
I want you for who you are,
when you're alone.
Let's talk of rugs and dinner,
And old streets the intimacy of sitting together,
Saying everything that never mattered.
I want two people being lost together,
being bored together every corner of our minds, becoming an encyclopedia of our idle banal life.,
in this room with grey walls
the ordinary turns to epics and fairytales
because we sit here...together
