I want the Butterflies.
The elongated stares.
The Exhale.
The dates.
The ups. The downs.
The triumph.
The late-night phone calls.
The hugs. The kisses.
Walks hand in hand.
You, holding my hand.
You, being my man.
The turmoil.
The drama.
The arguments. The fights.
The making up.
The struggle.
The ring.
The wedding. The vows.
The plans.
The house.
The children that will fill
our house.
A life with you.
I dream to dream
building a life with you.
I dare to never stop dreaming
until all of these things
become true.
In a world filled with brokenness
and hate, my heart holds on to
Love.
With stars in my eyes and hope
in my heart, I Exhale,
and dare to Love.
