One day someone will be taking care of me When I'm sick and when I'm hurt Someday I'll come home to a person Who washed and folded all my shirts Maybe in the future he'll make dinner for me too And know how I'm feeling even if what I say isn't true I'll work all day and get home so tired and worn And maybe he will do, and feel, the same We could just lay on the ground and order a pizza Eat half of it and pass out where we lay Wake up at four in the morning, only seeing silhouettes in the night And hold each others hands as we find our bed without our sight I'd make him surprise meals, maybe way too soon And discourage myself as he's out so late that day He'd come home and I'd tell him what I'd created Although now its cold/ soggy/ not the same, he'd still kiss me and say, "Thank you, baby. I'm sorry I was late, did I make you cry?" And I'd nod and look nonchalant... or at least I'd try. When we're apart, I'll think of him all throughout my time Thinking of future gifts and laughing too hard at his past puns Maybe looking like a lovestruck idiot in public But he would know, that's just how my mind runs And seeing each other again, I'd make sure to feel his face too much He'd let me, since he would love my touch He'd watch me sleeping ugly, with drool and farts and noise He'd probably record it to blackmail me later, Threatening with laughter to show it to all his friends But little would he know that I could do one greater: Revealing the albums of candid photos and videos in my phone And I wouldn't be able to help it, he would just be so cute-prone We may argue over something silly, something stupid, and I'd refuse to see him at all Looking away when he walks by and ignoring him when he talks to me He'd be hurt, and he would tell me that, my icy heart would melt away And I'd hug him so tight and apologize for being a meanie He wouldn't say anything, what if he doesn't hug me back? ...what if he never again placed his hands on my back? What if I ruin everything? If my personality is immature and strong He'll have had enough of it and he'll gently tell me he's letting me go I know I'll cry, asking if he still wants to keep the gifts I gave And my heart will be trembling as I fear he may say no... Because each moment was a whirlwind of him I'm afraid I'll ruin my future before it begins...

The Best Relationship I Haven't Had
