As I get to know you
Lavender grows in my heart,
The scent mends my scars
And it all feels true.

As I lay by you in the morning
You lay your ever-discovering eyes on me
After a tired night, morning and day
All I want to say is how much I cherish
Having you here next to me.

You don't need to
Make me feel like it's all okay
Or change my life in
Some unattainable way.

I promise to love you
For who you are, not who you make me -
Shining in all colors and shapes,
A precious, beaten-up jewel
I'll carry you in my front pocket  
So you can rest as long as you want to

I'll never know when
This might just end suddenly -
Still life made us meet
And it means so much to me.

I can hear the birds sing;
When you look at me, it's a heartwarming melody
A movie everyone wants to see
But you're showing it just for me, and I don't know how
I'll make it it up to you- and I'll
Grow fields of lavender just for you
And make the sky turn bright blue whenever you want it to

So we can truly understand how
Moments feel like an eternity together.
A poem I wrote for my future lover and the love I long to share with them
