I have an idea of what happiness is supposed to look like. White walls and throw blankets. Fireplaces and movie nights. Long talks and lazy sunday mornings. Smiling kids and a dog greeting me when I come home. I have a future that I want to see and achieve. It's a goal I set for myself before I knew what I wanted. It has always been my dream to live a life of laughter and love. It took me awhile to realize but I can see it because you are what made the dream a reality. You paint my white walls and buy my throw blankets. You light the fireplace and choose the movies. You are on the other end of my long talks and you hold me close on my lazy sunday mornings. You are the one to make my kids smile and name the dog that greets me. Every piece of my happy ending starts and ends with you. You are what paints the picture of my happy ending. You are my blank canvas that showcases my future, and you are every color that creates my happiness. You are my happiness. You are my person. You are my future.
