When you say my name
It sounds
like a town
It sounds
like the place
You want to live in
Or already do.
When you say my name
You say it
Like its your home
Like its where you
Hang your coat
Brush your teeth
Read in bed
Like its where
You laugh
Where you pet
Your temperamental cat
And eat cereal
And sing horribly
In the shower
Where you sing
wonderfully
In the shower.
When you say my name
It sounds
Like a town.
And I want to pack up
And find it.
Not because its a great place
Or even a nice one
But because I know
That without searching
for too long or
too hard
I could find you there
And hang my coat
Next to yours.
