Yeah, okay I am cool.. unbothered... The non-troubling kind, a hassle-free partner I shan't nag you. You are free to do What you want with your time. Go see your friends, talk to them Call up family, yours or mine. Do your job, watch a series, go spend your time online Yeah, okay I am cool. Because your time is yours, not mine. But, is it wrong that I want to be on your mind? A stolen reply after ten messages Continuously spewing nonsense That, if uncoded, would mean- give me attention Give me your time I feel like you have forgotten me even though you are mine Is it unacceptable that I want you to think of me Just as much as I do? I love that we have reached this stage Where silence is comfortable between us Between us, there is no need to chase Each other, for we are just So so so well integrated in each other's lives Husband and wife That we have forgotten the thrill of the unknown Forgotten the taste of unprompted sweet nothings Of surprise messages on sticky notes Of hugs out of nowhere Of fingers touching the others' in crowd I suppose comfort does that to couples We trade the excitement for simple, accept 'this is normal' and give up the 'wow' But, Is it bad that I don't want to?
