I see
lifetime in your hands,
home in your embrace,
and future in your eyes.I see
long kisses on our lazy mornings,
stolen "I love you" texts on our busy Wednesdays,
and tight hugs on our longing hours.I see you
begging for water while you choke on your spicy noodles,
dancing weirdly to the beat of a ballad song while I secretly film you,
and sleeping on the couch while we talk about how our day went.I see us
decorating our house with White Christmas,
doing grocery together—while you secretly add another pack of jelly ace in the cart,
and doing random make-face while we clean our living room.I see
growth,
fulfilled dreams,
and happiness.I see
simplicity,
peace,
and calmness.I see you, staying.
I see you for the rest of my years.
I see you—with me.
