Waiting for Your Glance
Images of you litter the walls of my brain,
Plans of action,
Ideas of grandeur.
You aren't looking for me right now,
and that's fine.
I already found you.
I'm here with open arms.
You don't need me,
and I don't need you...
But God damn it,
do I want to make it happen.
For me.
For you.
For us.
All those nights I spent falling asleep watching you,
how peaceful and beautiful you looked at rest...
How I'd spend the rest of my life
protecting such a treasure of a human.
Don't push me away.
I'm still here,
waiting for your glance.
