My dearest,
I question myself if I met you already
I go through the many people I have loved our could love
Have I met you yet?
Is any of them you?
The person I will spend the rest of my life with
I have thought before that I met you, but maybe I haven't
I can't know for sure until I die and I see who spend a lifetime next to me
Right now I try to find you
I have a hunch, a feeling, a suspicion
But the love of my life wouldn't jerk me around
You wouldn't mislead me
Tell me to call right now tonight for an important question
Just to let it linger in the air
You wouldn't break my heart over and over again
You would make sure to protect and cherish it
Treat my love as the most valuable currency in the world
Not something to pick up and twist around in your fingers just when you're bored
When you need to be reminded that despite everything
I could be a back-up if all the rest doesn't work out
I have been told I am a giver and I just keep giving
I am too naive and too forgiving
I don't think those are bad qualities
My question is
Why would you take advantage of them?
Why would you be a taker who just keeps on taking
With no regard of my emotional well-being
Seeing it as a funny game
Or a test of how far you can push me
To disregard myself
No
You wouldn't do that
You're the love of my life
You would treat me right
So I will wait for you
Forever Yours,
Zoë
