Hello my darling child
I have waited so long for you
I'm sorry that I didn't move faster
Or that I tried to wait for the 'right time'
when no such thing exists
and yet
it exists simultaneously all at once
because to have you
will always be the 'right time'
but I am sorry
so very sorry
that it has taken so long
because I will not get to have you
for as long as I'd like
and you will not get to have me
for as long as you may still need me
it will be longer still
until I can know you
sweet child
and I may never get to hold you
time and life and everything
can be so fickle with dreams
but I want you to know
that by far
you are my favorite dream
the memory I would gladly make
for all the lifetime that I have
to give all to you
my precious hero
you will save the world
because even without you
I still have you
and you have already
saved me
