I want to hear your heartbeat Wake up to your smile Know that neither one of us is going anywhere It's the dim lights of morning That make me see how truly aspiring you are How beautiful you are I know what I want I want the sweet sound of bacon Sizzling on the stove Coffee on the *** Filling the whole house with good morning beautiful Breakfast in bed on the days we both don't have to work Dinner already ready Late nights buffets of each others company I know I want you in my bed Every night just to cuddle The sound of little feet Pit-patting up the stairs The not so sneaky laughter Of our beautiful children Ready to pounce on us I know what I want I'm ready for every possible scare I'm prepared for the hours of labor The screaming and superhuman strength The cries of our newborn The late night bottle feedings The up and at em diaper changes The racing around Walmart Chasing after the little **** The laughter we'll both share When we realize we forgot the diaper bag The oh **** feeling when I know I ****** up Forgot to grab a gallon of milk The U-turns I'll make just to make you happy I know what I want The masquerading of feelings At least on the day I pop the question I know I want this The life of a father The life as your love Your best friend Everything you want me to be I know I want it Especially just being yours I want it all Every waking minute of knowing I love you Every sleeping second knowing your next to me I might not be made of money I might not be perfect I may be half a man with these scars But with you by my side I know I'll be more than your man I know what I want I want you to call me your teddy bear No awkward name like snugglewuggle Call me insane when I write poems Trying to capture how much I love you I want those kisses when I get home Throw the keys on the table Grab you and hold you just for the hell of it Pick you up and start dancing Just so I can hear your laugh I want to call you from work Just to see how your day is going Get you to laugh if its been bad Make you smile bigger if been good Show up at your work To bring you lunch Even if you already have one Take you on dates even when we're together I want to keep the passion between us alive You know what I know what I really honestly want That's a lifetime with you
It's how I felt at one point towards her. I just felt "our poem" didn't need to collect dust. Had questions about it so I asked my great friends what I'm to do with it. So here's to you. Hope this is a reminder of how I felt. Now I'm truly done.
