I haven’t set a time limit yet on when I want the fairytale ending. I haven’t flipped over an hourglass draining away till I have everything. I can wait. I can wait for children and for weddings, I can wait for a family home and oversized cars filled with detachable seats. That’s not really what it is I’m looking for. Sometimes you just want something. Life is particularly short and most don’t want to walk down that road alone; heavy feet and tired legs with nothing to distract us. Most just want someone to be able to share experiences with, someone to make memories with, someone that gives you a reason to get out of bed in the morning. It’s not a lot to ask for: it doesn’t cost money, only time. You want for someone you can have in your life that allows you to open up without hesitation and will listen even when it’s late. People always assume you’re in a rush to have it all but you’re not; rushing is only for those that worry it’s going to end. Did you know I hate sharing my bed with someone else? Absolutely hate it; so warm and uncomfortable - feels more like war than sleep. However there are times when I have bad nights and it’s just nice to know if I turned over and reached out somebody would be there. Choosing to be there, wanting to dream whilst I dream.
