My mind is blank.
I can't think.
I've forgotten how to breathe.
My eyes refuse to blink.
How long have I waited?
How long have I dreamt of this?
To hear you say those words
And then seal it with a kiss.
Yet here I am,
Staring at your perfect face,
Wondering if I'm dreaming
And trying to get my heart to slow it's pace.
You said it, those three words.
You said them to me.
My heart is about to burst.
Oh! Can this truly be?
Your staring back at me, nervously.
I should probably say something now.
I should open my mouth and speak,
If only I could remember how.
You look so beautiful,
Just standing there-
Teeth chewing on your lip,
Hands running through your hair.
All at once, I smile.
I can see the relief wash over you.
I nod 'yes', unable to speak,
Because your words came out of the blue.
I rush forward, into your arms.
I can hear your heart beating fast.
I can feel your smile.
The moment has come, at last!
With every bit of courage I have,
I stand on my toes and kiss you.
And through the kiss I say the words-
"I love you, too!"

The past two weeks a single dream has been plaguing mind. Every time I sleep, this is the dream I see. And while I really enjoy having it, its also a little painful. Because it reminds that it's just a dream, not reality. I haven't had that perfect moment in my life yet. Oh how I wish it would come soon. But I know I have to wait patiently for love to find me. That's what I've been told I should do. I only hope I don't lose myself during the wait.
