I want to be lame with you

I want to hold your hand

As we walk through the morning dew

I want to just sit and do all the nothing

That people do when they’ve found something true

I had so much excitement

Too much sometimes

In my early life

I have nothing else to prove

Except that I want you

I want to be with you everyday

I want to see your face

A face impossible to look away from

I want nothing more

Than to be lame with you

    I want to be lame with you - just, yes. That's exactly it.

    The extraordinariness of ordinary love, the romance in the mundane. Doesn't have to be in the grand gesture, just in the being. I really liked this. A true true love poem.

    This is lovely. Well done.

  • I like this so much. Our son always told me I was lame. The idea that my beloved doesn't mind but would want nothing more than to be lame with me--that image & thought is so comforting & satisfying.

    Very lovely. This line 'I want to just sit and do all the nothing' So very true. Silence is the marker of all love. When you can relish in it together 🤍 Love this!
