Verse: sidekick

(for @niclone)

winter
has a way
of sneaking up
on you

after
a while
it gets into
your bones

and
that is
the instant when
you know

that
you should
find someone you
can love

someone
brave enough
to give love
to you

yet
heroes are
so very hard
to find

so
if I
am not asking
too much

perhaps
you would
agree to be
my sidekick

and
we will
live a secret
nocturnal life

together
prowling restlessly
for the promise
of adventure

while
the streets
that do not
know us
sleep.
