Inside our Home

"Daddy, do you want a beer?"

Angel asked me.

We were sitting on the couch, playing pretend.

"She's saying that she loves you"

Dream says later.

While we were drinking wine, sharing our lives.

"Cuz that's how she shows love to her father.

Did you see the way she fell asleep in your arms?"

We talk awhile, scheming.

How can we help each other out?

Maybe we'll share a house next year.

Maybe we'll share a home.

Maybe this time we'll fall in step together.

"No."

I tell her.

"All we have is now and all we need is here."

As we fall asleep on the couch.

Inside our home.
