I Want to Live in Color

I don’t care if we make love
would just like to be craved
that ache of pent up desire
be his glass of lemonade on a sticky afternoon

I want to laugh out loud in movie theaters
get in a water fight on our driveway
eat Pad Thai noodles straight from the take-out container
sleep like those soft pretzels from outdoor stands

I wish to live in color
savor all the minutes of each hour
put them in pretty glass jars
on high shelves out of harm's way
