A Perpetual Existence: A Collected Work of Poems and Verse

To Love

I want to be in love.

I want you to hold me close

while I learn everything about you.

I want to know what makes you happy,

and what's your favorite book

to read on a snowy day.

I want to lay on the beach with you

even though I hate the sand,

just so the two things that make me

feel warm are in the same place.

I want to love you.

I want to fall utterly,

ridiculously in love with you.

And I want you to fall in love with me.

I want you to dance with me in the kitchen,

to all of our favorite songs.

I want you to love my annoying rants

even though you've heard it all

a million times before.

I want you to make me feel safe.

I want you to be my home.

I want to be in love with you.

And most of all,

I want for us to meet.
