7 to 9 love

Our love only occurs between 7 to 9 

The time you get out of work 

and I'm on standby 

Like a cellphone waiting for signal

 I wait for you to get out of work

 so that I can breathe again 

 and feel the caress of your skin and no! 

Skype is no substitute! 

I kiss the screen it's not the same 

as the feeling of your lips against mine 

 Not to mention the tingles 

and the jingle in my head 

the words without the tune

 without the headspace that it takes to

 intersect your world and mine

 two heads, one time 

all must happen between 7 and 9 

 We must dissect the day 

and breakdown the hours 

What did you do? 

and did you think of me while you were doing it? 

Do you miss me? Like I miss you?

 Or am I just a girl? worried about you?

 And how do I look?

 Waiting for you to notice 

I can tell if you give me a compliment 

 The time I spent picking out this outfit 

and the nails to match and my toes too 

No, it's not effortless 

No, I'm not superman

 Disappearing in a phone booth 

and changing within seconds on the clock 

 No, honey I take longer 

But I promise it will be worth it

 My goal is to make your jaw drop 

Or at least get a smirk

 Not a frown 

Because my gown is too long 

or my skirt is too short 

No, I am a woman 

and you are my man 

and love and time is something to balance 

 always

 I love you and that's all I really know

 trying to get used to this 7 to 9 love
maybe when we're married I'll see you more

Oh shit! It's 5! Gotta wait 2 hours to show you this poem

7 to 9 love
This is the 7 to 9 love

 My 7 to 9 love 

 And Still I Love You
