Is this it?

Is this it?

Sometimes I feel like this is all we have

That this is all it will ever be

A young couple together for 10 years

2 kids

Never getting married

Same thing over and over again

Nothing exciting

I feel as if I want more sometimes

I don’t mean more as in another man

I mean more as in I want to feel more

More wanted, more loved, more like a woman who he can’t live without

I want it all

And yeah this may seem like I am asking for a fairytale

But fairytales are examples of things that can be worked up to

I don’t think people get fairytales

I think people make things happen and then that becomes their fairytale

I want a surprise here and there

I want to know that you think of me on special occasions the way I do

I don’t want to know that money is so short to get something

To do something special on a birthday

On a stupid holiday

Some thoughtful things don’t need money

But that’s what’s missing

The thought

I don’t want to live the average life that every couple lives

Its so cliché

I want sweet things

Like I said I want it all

I need it all…
