Spend Time With You

By Cherime Sangma

Spend time with you,

 It’s all I’d do;

 I’d ask for nothing much,

 Just the magic of you;

 I’d spend time with you,

 It’s all I’d really do;

 We’d gaze at the ceiling,

 In our cosiest pajamas,

 And watch lights come on

 from our window;

 No fancy dinner reservations,

 Darling,

 Just noodles would do—

 And we could eat royally

 on our best couch;

 We could watch

 Your favourite show,

 Turn on Netflix and lay low;

 Put our feet up on the wall,

 And no one would tell us no;

 We could wrap ourselves

 in blankets,

 Or roam in our shorts instead;

 You know,

 Whatever the weather throws;

 We could play random songs,

 Just loud music for white noise,

 While we stole time

 For your precious talks;

 We’d make mountains of your pillows,

 Roll out carpets on the floor,

 Light scented candles for a change;

 Scroll through YouTube if you’re bored,

 Or read classic poems for the mood;

 Why go out darling?

 When the universe could be

 at our door;

 And planets in our room

 we could roll;

 Why go out my darling?

 When it could just be you and me

 And me and you

Today and every day.
