we're gonna do it. you and i, you and me, it'll happen.
the world won't scare us one day because we'll finally be able to look in mirrors and see parts of the universe in our skin -
parts that seem to be covered in shadows now.
but they're still there
and they remain.
we are born for greatness and happiness and strength. the bruises of life are not permanent, and for the ones that feel like that they are, i will drag you to the nearest tattoo shop and we will turn those bruises and scars into masterpieces about what love feels like
because one day we'll actually know. one day, we'll be loved.
one day, we will be held under a moon lit sky and maybe it'll be raining and maybe the stars won't be as bright as the movies,
but one day, we'll be loved
and that'll be all that counts.
and it just won't be you and i , there'll be other people, other celestial people to add to our universe, and soon we'll have a solar system of happiness to count on every time things feel a bit out of orbit. it's going to be spectacular.
call me a dreamer, but as long as i'm by your side i won't take it as an insult.
because it really isn't.
your name reminds me of hope, and you walk like there's something always more to discover.
and that's okay,
because yeah, it's complicated
but i've always loved complicated. and i always will.
so here's my promise to you.
we'll be more than okay one day, we'll make it. and when we do, we'll forget it ever was a question.
because, it'll finally make sense that it was you
and i,
you and me,
that was the answer.
