Love Is

You mimic accents

Make me laugh

I indulge your passion

For old photographs

You run my bath

Add bubbling potions

I listen to your

Crazy notions

We occasionally converse 

Usually chit chat

Mutually dislike

Next door's brat

You kiss my forehead

In bed each night

I reply sweet dreams

Turn off the light

We spoon

Comfortable together

Or, embrace passion,

One for the other

Sometimes we argue

Over trivialities

Soon apologise

Return to our normality

Compromise, respect

Loving companions

United, we two, 

By enduring affection
