Love Is…
Being tired all the time
Cold feet under old duvets, entwined
Cups of tea made and forgotten
Leftovers wrapped up in the fridge
Whatsapp half messages and appointments on calendars
Worn out birthday cards
Forgotten plans for date nights
Discarded under laundry and odd socks
Comfortable silences
Lumped on the sofa
Watching re-runs of favourite shows
Sticky fingers and runny noses
Early mornings and disruptive nights
Want, want, want
Take, take, take
Crying and complaining and moaning and whinging
Soft, tired huggles and sofa snuggles
Vomit and poop and skinned knees
Trips out, days out, packed lunches
Going warm in the sun
Worry and stress and panic and doubt
Trying to be organised and have fun
