My favourite part
of falling in love with you
Was not passing milestones
Or the passion
Though I love those too

It was becoming more of each other

Your favourite music becomes
Part of my playlist
You adopt my vocabulary
And sing when you’re restless

It’s getting used to music in the house
And embraces on the train
And at the end of the day
Looking forward to you, again

It’s feeling the glow
When you look at me like I’m made of magic
Reminders of that
In the futures we imagine

It’s quiet, and sturdy,
The more we build and discover
Never-ending
As we flow into each other
