So,
I'm a little unrealistic.
I put the word brave-
in everything.
If there isn't a reason for it,
I'll create one.

I'll hike to the top of a mountain
and imagine for a moment
that the world is okay...
and that somehow,
that climb
just changed it.

I'm the girl who will iron your pants before work,
Pack your lunch-
And write you a letter that's cute enough for grade school-
Complete with a nickname.

I'm the shower that never runs out of hot water...
Cause the second you feel it getting cold-
I'll give you another reason to feel warm
and teach you that beauty is more than what meets the eye...

Beauty-
Is what meets the skin-
The feelings,
The emotions,
The breath on breath...
The cuddle that gets close to your heart
and the laughter that you hear with your eyes.
The love that I am ready for...
But,
I'm a little unrealistic.
