What I want out of life…

I want to love someone, with all my heart and feel the same amount of love in return.

I want to have that person be my best friend and closet confidant.

I want to grow old with her, but fight it together every step of the way.

I want to be successful and to share that success with the person that means the most to me in the whole wide world.

I want to hear a love song and have their image immediately pop into my mind.

I want to have them enjoy me as much as I enjoy them.

I want every time we make love to feel like the first time and every time we leave one another to be the last time.  

I want to lay in bed with her for hours and do nothing but talk.

I want to have fun and play and act foolish, so that we can have fond memories as we age.

I want to spend an eternity in her presence and have it feel but like a second.

I want to grow and learn and laugh and cry with her.

I want to face obstacles that seem impenetrable, so that when we do overcome them, we can celebrate our victory together.

I want to worship her physically and emotionally and feel the love we share unspoken.

I want her to respect me, so I can respect her, and all that I do in the name of our love, because everything accomplished by one of us will benefit the other.

I want to never have to say “I’m sorry,” but never fail to say it to save some hurt.

I want a life with her, but a life worth living, filled with love and accomplishment, even if what we accomplish is just loving one another.

I want her life and my life to be intertwined and inseparable, out of mutual desire, not jealousy and pettiness.

I want her to live for me and me for her.
