If you have found a smile
that is the sweetest one you've known,
If you have heard, within a voice,
the echoes of your own,
If you have felt a touch
that stirs the longings of your heart,
And still can feel that closeness
in the moments you're apart,
If you have filled with wonder
at the way two lives can blend
To weave a perfect pattern
that is seamless, end to end,
If you believe some things in life
are simply meant to be,
Then you have found your soul mate,
your heart's own destiny.

Hearts shattering
Guts flittering

No going back
What’s unseen in me

Waves crash
Waters splash

Earth moves every day
Hearts feeling the exact same way

Progress made
Regress trade

Broken glass
Chaos smashed

Pictured world
Reality swirled

Common knowledge
Overworked soilage

Words useless in the face of such artwork
Truths deceived

Adding confusion, subtracting romance
Weak at the knees, bleeding from the core

Breaking, bending,
Stretching, mixing

Melting, moving,
Laughing, Striving

Things unsaid make the heart seem heavy
To rid these burdens, joy is borrowed

Tracing souls
Breaking molds

Kindling under ashes
Suggestive passes

Feelings linger
Shaking fingers

Fate is the creator
Paths winding over

Wait and see, dear
Wait and see

you deserve flowers on your doorstep
and coffee in the morning

you deserve notes left on your dashboard

and ice cream sundaes at 3am

you deserve honesty every day

and to be kissed every hour

you deserve to be reminded

how beautiful you are

You belong among the wildflowers
You belong in a boat out at sea
You belong with your love on your arm
You belong somewhere you feel free

--Tom Petty

I’m stubborn, I know
So don’t try to change me

Oh baby, those blue eyes
They see right through me

I just need some oxi from my baby
You’re so far away
It’s driving me crazy

I think I’m fallin’ for you
Oh yes, I’ve fallen hard for you
We don’t know how to trust the same
But it’s okay

If we get into a fight
Let’***** pause and never hit play

Don’t make this a game
Please talk to me the same

Oh how is this going to work
We both can be such jerks

But I love it, it’s so amazing
Yes, we’re going to be misunderstood

I think I’m fallin’ for you
Oh yes, I’ve fallen hard for you
We don’t know how to trust the same
But it’s okay

I’m loving you
I think you feel the same too

I promise
I promise
To cherish you
Protect you
Love you
Hold you
If you would
Treat me like it’s understood
