Dear, my love, A Haiku

We’ll sit and devour

the warm coffee while mesmerized.

Twisting up the hands of clocks.

 

I’ll listen closely

to the way your voice deepens

when you speak Spanish.

 

We’ll dance out of sync in the sand,

our own rendition of the Bachata.

Blushing like Bayahíbe roses.

 

You’ll watch my favorite rom coms

with me and learn to love them

because you love me.

 

We’ll embrace until

our lips are full, then continue on

just like the waves.

 

We’ll sleep and drink

in love, poring over our future.

Making time swoon and stop just for us.
