Exception
You have rules for yourself,
though not chosen consciously:
daily routines you conform to,
peeves that you can’t ignore,
a type that you date.
I want to surprise you.
I want you to choose me
despite not being your type.
I want you to enjoy being around me
and not notice your usual peeves.
I want you to do something different
because we want to form new habits.
More than that,
I want you to be my exception --
the boy I wasn’t looking for,
an exciting upset to my life,
the comfort I’ve been missing.
When I am your exception
and you are mine,
no rules will limit us.
