The nightstand

I needed one

Maybe you 

Don't understand.

A nightstand

Is what I need

To fit

Into your bedroom.

It holds

My needs

My comforts

It lets me 

Let my guard

Down...

Just a layer.

I have been

So hurt 

So used

By many men.

So for me

This nightstand 

Is my..

Test.

A test that

You care.

But you 

Did not know 

That.

So as I saw the 

Perfect nightstand 

Looking like

Boards on 

Boardwalk that 

Would lead

To a beach.

I wanted it.

I showed it to 

You .. Knowing 

It 

Was to big 

For the space.

You looked at me

And picked it 

Up.

When we 

Got back 

To your 

House 

You made it 

Fit.

You moved 

Your bedroom 

Around for me.

I sat on 

Your bed..

In this moment

I was yours. 

It's not about 

Money 

Or our past. 

It's about 

My comfort.

You kissed

Me on my

Forehead.

I felt so dizzy.

You said now 

You need a lamp.

I was gone...

All I heard 

Was forever,

And I am in.
