The New York I Love
Darling take my hand
let me show you
the New York I love –
the perfectly framed Empire State Building
through the Washington Square arch,
the vivacious people
dancing and conversing in the park,
as we sit on the edge
taking it all in
and I bury my head
into your neck
before grabbing your hand
guiding you through my favorite bookstore
before sitting across from you
at a small cafe
taking in all that you are
studying your soul
hoping to kiss you
under the city lights
