I imagine you and I might be great at kissing

I imagine we could also excel

In a plethora of activities and states of being

Mundane routines and

Once in a lifetime opportunities

Nights in but also weeks away

Something about you and it must not just be your smell because it was a while before you let me get real close and sniff you and it was really just that once so it hardly counts

Anyway, there's just something that led me to suspect we might be in love

We might be really good at being in love

Even if we never kiss my elaborate fantasies have branched off and are budding in other dimensions as we speak

Even without you and me there's a version of us that makes sex & art and shacks up and builds and empire of creation

Makes fancy coffee calmly in the morning while our teenage daughter sleeps through her alarm

We don't even need to run away to start over in the rainforest and then reemerge five years later acclaimed documentarians and proud parents of beautiful blonde baby boy (water birthed)

We don't need to because we already will have

Each night I dream a world of us & each morning it goes on to live completely independent of our influence

I love you already and I wonder what you're thinking, what you're up to right now

I wonder what you're doing tomorrow and what you'll look like in fifteen years and if you'll ever kiss me or if you even want to
