#22

It's my favourite number
22...
A perfect pairing
Like 6 and 9

Two bodies
Turned on their side
In opposite directions
Lace panties pushed aside

"No one's done this since you..."
Except for the other women, of course
The ones that live in your head
And, your bed

I was at the grocery store
Line-22
Thinking of you
Even when I'm not...

Your subliminal now
I'm not sure that's much of a compliment
Visible is preferable from my perspective
With or without your clothes

I like you naked
No, I love you naked
But I love you clothed, too
There's really no in between...not with you

Perhaps it's me 
I don't have an in between
Which is probably why I don't have you either
But that's not exactly true, is it???

I do have you...
In my heart
And, my mind
But frankly, I'd rather have you in my body

You want that, too
Not sure what you're waiting for
An engraved invite is not coming in the mail
But I can!

I make you sparkle
Did you know?
You do that for me, too
Or rather, you did

Maybe you will again
Maybe...
If I let you, that is
You'd have to let me, too

Wish things were less complicated
Simple funds aren't so simple, are they???
But the heart wants what the heart wants
And, mine wants yours

You're not the first to break it
I just hoped you'd be the last
Perhaps you still will be
From "one day" to "day-one"???

I'm not holding my breath
But I'll always hold you in my heart
You're quite wonderful, you know
Try not to forget it....
