I want to breathe
with ease
Play the piano with my heart
and describe the part
of you whom I love.
Toss a coin in the Trevi Fountain
climb that Japanese mountain
to show my love is irritating
yet invigorating
I bought you a goldfish
instead of a ring
because loving you is a hard thing
I’m watching time as the ceiling fan turns
My heart yearns
While you behave so pious
since you’re in love with being self-righteous.
