Not your Date.
He is a fan of movies and board games
talk of people, places and foods with exotic names
Of Bad Habits, and the outdoors
and laying in the sun for days,
He'll hold the doors open for you to go through and
He'll ask you questions about your day
But don't you ever....
He'll notice your new hair cut
He'll tell you your boots are looking great
Invite you to places with dark corners
where there are people who don't know your names
sacrifice his Lazy Sunday, or any day that week
But he...
Will Be quiet with you, while you lie awake in bed
Crook his neck just to support you,
to find a place to rest your head
and when you think your life is over,
He'll crack a joke and you'll both laugh at your expense!
But don't suspect...
He'll stay inside with you when it rains
get up first in the mourn' to make you pancakes
remember the names of all your siblings, before the
names of provinces and states
but don't you dare ever assume
because he is not your date
