somewhere no one says no

Do you like me? Could you love me?
Am I enough? Are you sure?
Can I lay where you've laid?
Is this nail polish your favorite shade?
How about this big, warm bed?
Oh, you like my shirt? It's yours.
Do I satisfy your thirst? Are you hungry?
Shall I make us dinner? Is this your favorite meal?
The one I cooked? Do I wear an aura that enchants you?
Is my face sparkling to you? You like looking at me?
Could you love me when I'm rigid and scheduled?
What if I change? If I fall into a lazy spell, will you stay?
Love me in my mess? Clean up my wild, untamed space?
Take me home? Make this a home? Our home?
Would you like that too? Am I safe with you?
Do you also want to be near me like a book press?
Then every night, can we come together?
Just like this? Reflecting each other's eyes?
Fold into each other like the sheets?
And never stop? Be like this forever?
Was that a yes? Did you say yes?
