hey
how are you?
what are you up to?
what’s on your mind?
no really, what do you think about?
do you think about me?
I mean the essence of the idea of me
of us.
is there something here?
am I worth it?
are you?
I like you
I mean, I really like you.
like the sky is brighter, birds sing louder, coffee tastes better I like you.
tell me about your dreams.
more importantly, your fears.
not of oblivion or the big black nothingness
but of failure
and losing
too much success
end-of-life regrets
please just amuse me
tell me that love is more important than a career
then tell me why.
describe the ocean at sunset
look at me with those steady comforting eyes that smile locking on mine
in that one stolen glance seeing right into the soul beneath
excuse me while I silently pine
as I find home in the space between your arms and mine
tell me everything is going to be alright
then kiss me
hold me close to you and pray never to lose me
and allow me to fall
knowing you’ll always catch me
be my hero
my knight in shining armor
the fairytale ending worthwhile of fantasizing
my dream when I am awake
never dare try to escape
this encounter undoubtedly fate
I have seen forever in only a day
flashing behind my brain
with each passing moment spent with you
accept my love at face value
let me in
even if just for a little
know I want you to stay
I always want you to stay
and want me to stay too
and want me to stay too.
