i want butterfly kisses
and picnics by the sea
i want to smile for you
because it makes you happy
i want a surprise breakfast
that you serve to me in bed
just because you felt like it
or to make up for something you said
i want walks in the moonlight
and dancing in the rain
i want to see you pull your hair
because i'm driving you insane
i want to bake for you at 3 am
just because i couldn't sleep
and have you yawn and hold me close
as you mumble that i'm a freak
i want you to yell at me
or glare and roll your eyes
whenever i do something wrong
when you catch me in my lies
i want firm decisions
that you'll make cos i don't know
i want respect for my opinion
and subtle 'i told you so's
i want hugs because i'm sad
and you sensed my mood somehow
i want you to tease my patience
for something later instead of now
i want to believe it
when you tell me i'm beautiful
despite baggy eyes and frizzy hair
to know i'm precious to you
i don't need perfection
i'd never feel that i deserved it
i just want my other half
who balanced me and fit
you'd be beautiful perfection in your imperfect lines
and that's all i could ever ask for
for me to be your dream just as you are mine

alone* in the rain;
