Tomorrow

Yesterday I was set on meeting you
In the usual place on the stairs
But at 9:00am- the usual time
I turned up but you weren't there.

I'm used to seeing you often
It's sad when you're ill or away
Because you're the one thing I look forward to
If you're not here it's a very slow day.

Today I walk past the picnic tables
Seeing couples wherever I go
One day if we're together
There are many things I want to show:

My favourite spot in the park perhaps
Where the sun hits the green in the trees
Where we can paddle in the river a while
And watch the pollen collected by bees.

Or perhaps I'll take you to the beach
Build sandcastles on the shore
Watch your face light up as I splash you
As you beg me for no more.

I want to see you smile for me
Not for anyone else
I want you to hold me, touch me, kiss me
Until my heart entirely melts.

Tomorrow I'm going to ask you out
To show you how much I care.
I'll meet you in the usual place
I look forward to meeting you there.
