I want to love you completely,
Without barriers surrounding my heart.
But you, you have the power to drown me,
In happiness and love and kindness.
You have the power to build me up and keep me grounded to make me a better person.
You are someone so beautifully rare and incredibly special.
But you scare me.
Because if I fall for you,
I’m handing you my beating heart and placing it your hands.
I’m giving you something that I was never able to give to the ones before.
I’m giving you my awareness, my willingness,
my undying trust and devotion and loyalty.
I’m giving you me.
I’m giving you the anxiety and bipolar riddled madness.
I’m giving you the depressed Wednesday mornings because I miss simplicity in its rarest form.
I’m giving you my past, and hoping you can love me despite that person I was.
I’m giving you my present and the moments in between.
I’m giving my insecurities and my demons because the moment you hold my hand the worlds becomes quiet for me.
But most importantly I’m giving my future,
Because without you I don’t have a future.
I want Sunday morning coffee,
I want Monday night movie madness and early morning Tuesday ***.
I want you for the rest of my life
Because with you I have magic and simplicity in the rarest form.
