Flowers and a Snug
I desire me some flowers,
A doorstep delivery every season;
Lilies and roses during summer
Tulips and some English primrose in winter
Or marigolds and violas in Autumn.
Chuckling as I put down this list
For a girl who was never given a stem
I request for a whole bunch.
I desire me a snug,
A safe aboard for my vagabond soul.
I crave the experience of a fairytale romance,
A home in a human
With a spice of royal treatment.
A ghost companion whose name I could call
“Mine”
My abstract mind snapped back to reality
No doorstep delivery of seasonal flowers
No fairytale romance or homely snug
Just the acceptance of the impossibility
to be loved the way I want to be loved.
