I wonder if I'll ever have it
To hold someone so close & to be so in love.
I wonder if I'll ever have it.
I often sit there pondering
As I see the man with red cheeks lean in
& give her a kiss as he wraps his arm around her.
Am I allowed to be jealous?
To need & want someone to hold me just like that & to be so
in awe.
I probably shouldn't ask for it.
'Just let it come' as the saying goes
But will I be 40? And still waiting for it to come knock at my door?
I know that it's out there
A maybe I idealize & romanticize everything
But who doesn't? When it comes to love.
I see the man order for her as he ask for a muffin on the side, "her favorite."
And I can't help but think if they'll know what mine is.
I know that on days where the sun doesn't shine, we'll have to learn to love harder.
But he'll never forgot my favorite flowers
He knows how sentimental I am.
I'll know how sensitive we both are.
I'll rest my head on his shoulder
& although we aren't speaking, he'll reach for my hand & he'll squeeze it gently
To let me know we're okay.
I often think about what it's like to be in love
I just want to know what it's like to be loved by someone unconditionally.
