there was never a moment when i felt more vulnerable. you are everything paradoxial and it makes me feel like polar opposites might have a chance. it's never worked like this before, but then again, it was never you. everything that i never thought i'd want from someone is right here in front of me and i couldn't love you more. maybe nice girls eventually do fall for nice guys? i will just accept it and try not to perpetuate my bad habits involving relationships.
most importantly, i think that you're right. there is something familiar between us, but i don't know what it is. you are familiar to me as i am to you. perhaps we are both animals, but in entirely different ways. but i promise, no matter what, i won't laugh at you. pinky swear, as long as you don't laugh at me. when you look up at me with that look on your face...it makes me feel like i am everything wonderful in the world, everything that is beautiful. maybe while you're taking care of me, i can take care of you, and we'll be good for each other. you make me all kinds of domestic, but this time i don't mind. it doesn't feel like a chore when you come home in the morning after a long night at work, to sleep in my bed. holding me close when i get those nightmares, telling me that everything will be ok. telling me that i'm your princess.
baby you are all those mushy things that i never understood before, you are what i want for the rest of my life. i know we are both tired of searching for something that we just couldn't find, and waking up next to a new face all the time. tired of that dating game, and childish relationships. are you ready for something real, because i know i am, and you are the only one that i want to wake up next to.
i don't care what other people say, because their opinions really don't count, do they? we can just go away someplace where no one knows our names, where our reputations can't follow us. we'll do what we want and be happy, and no one will say a thing. we can escape this place where everyone wants to tell you something, gossip about someone, stab someone else in the back. i'm tired of hearing your name on other people's lips, telling lies about you, tired of this knife in my back and how much it hurts when it's a friend who puts it there. let's just go away where it's warm and people don't care who we used to be.
