I\u2019ve been dreaming of someone to love,
Someone to make feel special, lifted above.
Not just in words, but every little way,
To show them they matter, day after day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want to wake up and make you smile,
To show you, you\u2019re worth every mile.
Whether life\u2019s easy or full of strain,
I\u2019ll be there to share your joy and pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I don\u2019t want to love halfway,
I want to be the reason you\u2019re okay,
The person you run to, the one you trust,
Someone who\u2019s there when life gets tough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want to make you feel seen,
Not just a shadow in someone\u2019s dream.
To remind you, you\u2019re more than enough,
That you\u2019re deserving of all kinds of love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019ll be the one who listens close,
When you\u2019re feeling low, when you need the most.
I\u2019ll value your thoughts, your hopes, your fears,
And stand by you through all the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You deserve to feel like you\u2019re everything,
Not just someone on the side, but a queen or king.
I\u2019ll make you feel loved from head to toe,
And remind you of it so you\u2019ll always know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want to be your comfort, your peace,
To be the one who brings your mind ease.
No games, no pretending, no hiding away,
Just real love that\u2019s here to stay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You deserve to be cared for, treated right,
Not just in the day but even at night.
I\u2019ll be there when the world feels dark,
To remind you, you\u2019re the spark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want to love you in ways that show,
That you\u2019re valued and cherished, more than you know.
In all the small things and grand gestures too,
I want to make sure you feel brand new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s not about perfection or keeping score,
I just want to give, and maybe more.
To show you, in every possible way,
That you\u2019re appreciated, every single day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So when you\u2019re tired or feeling low,
I\u2019ll be there to remind you though,
That someone cares, someone sees,
And with me, you can be at ease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m not perfect, but I\u2019ll love you right,
With every heartbeat, with all my might.
You deserve a love that never fades,
And I\u2019m ready to love you in endless ways.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
