love to watch you love

The song after the song I don't write.

I watch you.
You go and hug your son
after he comes back
from the play ground
for lunch.
You lounge
lazily on the sunny bench.
You speak of the future
hesitantly
not sure if it will ever truly come.
You lean against your friend's
back so he can hide the sun's
glare from you. You take it all for granted.

You speak hotly
of your love
and you feel across your body
an energetic electricity
so strong you have to stand and shout.
You are so beautiful
your youth is so strong
like a twig caught in a
spring of water
I watch you.

Your love is so strong
you are not a tree
not a bird going extinct.
You are human.
And I watch you and wish I could be you.

Winter always come
and like a bird
I hide from sight
and from my hidden nest
I watch you warm together your nights.
