Dream 🌸🦋✨

Babe…

I've said before, you are my dream come true, coming true. I hope you know that I mean that literally… I don't remember my dreams often, but when I do…

You and me, standing in a field of flowers, butterflies all around us. You look at me and smile me that smile that I love so much. And as my heart melts, as it still does every single time, even after all these years… the butterflies take flight, all at once, as if cued by your dazzling warmth and beauty…

And we stand for a moment, centered in a cloud of butterflies, so many you can hear the sound of their delicate wings stirring so much air… But leaving a respectful space around us.

Then you bring a hand up to the level of your eyes, your amazing gorgeous eyes, and a single butterfly lands on it. And as you glance at it, taking in the intricate beauty of its wings, my eyes are on your lips, taking in the intricate beauty of the upward curve in the corners of your grin…

And the butterfly stays for only a moment, a moment that lasts an eternity… before your eyes follow it as it flies off.

And once the butterfly gets lost among its companions, your eyes drift back down to me, finding my own eyes still gazing longingly at those lips that I've ached to kiss for so long… So, so long now… Watching as the corners turn up even more…

And you step toward me. And, for a wonder, I don't step back… instead, pulling you into my arms, I finally lift my gaze from your lips to look into those eyes… closer than I've ever seen them before… close enough to take in the intricate beauty of your irises… close enough to see that beautiful, kind, sweet soul burning brightly behind your pupils…

And then we kiss.

And your lips are so incredibly sweet… your body, pressed fully against mine… my arms, holding you oh so tight…

And we begin to glow, a soft warmth emanating from our hearts as our lips press against each other… getting brighter, and brighter, warmer, and warmer, my arms holding you tighter, and tighter… our bodies coming closer, and closer… so impossibly close… Until we are a single solitary being of blinding light and heat, beautiful to behold…

…and then I awoke. Sadly, without you in my arms, but still full of warmth and pure, unadulterated love, that sweet taste of you still on my lips…

Oh, my love.

I don't remember my dreams often, but when I do…

sigh

I love you. My god, do I ever love you…

I am yours. Forever.
