Notes for Love Song – Pre – lock down we used the bus almost daily and he would always say ‘It’s our turn’ when we neared our stop and he would stand up first and I would sneak a cuddle by pushing my face into his back and try to record in my mind his smell and his feel and his voice forever.
Love Song
And soon he’ll say
‘It’s our turn’
And I will push myself upon his back
And inhale the smell from the tweed and the ointment
That calms his skin
Which then
In turn
Calms me
