A Lot Like You:

"I was told

The average girl begins to plan her wedding at the age of 7

I was told that
She picks the colors and the cake first

By the age of 10

She knows the time and the location

By 17

She's already chosen a gown

And a maid of honor

By 22

She's waiting for a man

Who wont break out in hives when he hears the word "commitment"

Someone who doesn't smell like a Band-Aid drenched in lonely

Someone is more than a temporary solution to the empty side of the bed

Someone

Who'll hold her hand like it's the only one that he's ever seen

To be honest

I don't know what tuxedo I'll be wearing

I have no clue what my wedding will look like

But I imagine that the women who pins my last name to hers

Will butterfly down the aisle

Like a 5 foot promise

I imagine that her smile

Will be so big that you'll see it on Google Maps

And know exactly where our wedding is being held

The woman that I plan to marry

Will have champagne in her walk

And I will get drunk on her footsteps

When the pastor asks me

If I take this woman to be my wife

I will say yes before he even finishes the sentence

I'll apologize later for being impolite

But I will also explain to him

That our first kiss happened 6 years ago

And I've been practicing my "Yes"

For the past 2, 165 days
