When I meet you, when I finally do
Know that I have been waiting for you
I will write this first poem ever
So you will know you've always been in my nightly prayer
And with the prayers that my heart will utter
I will be waiting for you even if it takes forever
You see? I pray for unlimited second chances
In my heart and mind it dances
I want a second chance on my last first kiss
that will take me down an unknown abyss
I want my second chance on getting to know somebody
On things so deep, even on its triviality
I want my second chance in planning for our future
with a person who sees me with eyes so sure
I want my second chance in showing i love deeply
and finally be vulnerable and sweet and silly
I want my second chance in love
To finally swim like a dolphin, fly like a dove
in the ocean of uncertainties
and skies of opportunities
But when I meet you I wanna enjoy our leadoff
From travelling to a place where we know nothing
To just staying at home watching the cheesiest movies
Or cuddling days on end in our cute onesies
I want my first plane ride to be with you
'Cause I hate heights, I really do
I would love your arm to be draped protectively over my shoulders
'Cause you'd know my anxiety comes in rolling boulders
So while It's still early, yes, I have that scary hole of anxiety
So I pray for you to know the bottomless pit that is me
My thoughts run haywire and believe me it does wildly
I want you to know that so you could understand me really
I hope you like music like I do
My moods will show in what i'm listening to
I hope you like me being so grumpy at you
Just know that in the end i will stick it with you
I won't promise you fairy tale princess or the smoothest sails
I know one day the butterflies and sunshine will just leave trails
Like this poetry, our love will be in constant disarray
But I hope you know I am here, so please don't you push me away.
The firsts I am earnestly praying for to be mine
I believe will be given to me in God's perfect time
Wherever you are, I am preparing for you
So our firsts will lead to our "I do"
But for now I have to be by myself and experience the "firsts" of my own
By the time we meet I would've grown
Into somebody you would be proud to say "yours"
So let us let life, for now, take its course.
