I think the word "love" is scary
it carries lots of suitcases, neatly packed
I'm thankful for the time I've spent
taking vacations
I've seen lots of marvelous things
I've learned so much
I've clutched my suitcase so close to my chest
that I thought the plastic was molding into my skin
like a pandora's box of emotions
I never thought I'd find someone like you
that makes me want to
unlock the hinges
slide down the zipper
take out the neatly folded contents
like a lazy sunday afternoon folding laundry
you're my sunday afternnoon
and my monday morning
lots of late night kisses
and "I'll see you tomorrow"s
I'm thankful for the time I've spent
taking vacations
but now I want to unpack with you
