I Hope You Find Someone

I hope you find someone that will love you despite your inconsistent penmanship

Someone that will warm your toes when they’re freezing

Or your hands if they ever do I hope you find someone that will cook you fettuccine

Because he knows food is also the way to a woman’s heart

I hope you find someone that will brush your hair

Not because he finds tangled hair unattractive

But because it hinders him from seeing that lovely face of yours

I hope you find someone that will sing to you

Despite his deep voice

Despite his unsynchronized voice

(if that’s even a word)

I hope you find someone that will be okay if you guys don’t talk

Only because you’re doing your homework

And even if it’s with someone he’s jealous of

I hope he knows how to let you go

I hope you find someone that will grow daisies in your heart

And sunflowers in your lungs

I hope he sees the light in you

I hope you find someone that will pick your nose

And someone that will not give you the entire world

But his world

I hope you find that good enough

I hope you find someone that will put up with you

Grow with you

Because there’s always room for growth

I hope you find someone that will look at you like it’s the first time he has seen you

Not the type of look that displays love at first sight

But the type that shows only love

Because love is not an all around sense

You do not fall in love with what you see

Or hear

Or taste

Or smell

You only fall in love with what you feel

And I’m not talking about physical touch

Because he has to touch your soul before he can ever touch your body

I’m talking about the type of touch that holds your heart and mind

I hope he feels every thought and every heart beat on his palms

I hope you find someone that will understand your mood swings and bipolarity

Someone that will give you space and let you go

I hope you find someone that will come back to you when you need him to

Someone that will come back to you over and over

And over again

And I wrote that twice because I need you to understand that you have to find someone that will never give up on you

Someone that will love you again and again

I hope you find someone that will make you waste your money on pens

Because he knows you bleed ink and his name is the fluid that flows through your veins

But I hope you find someone that you will not be too much depended on

I hope you find someone that will help you on your math homework

Or correct you when you say lackadaisical wrong

Because you always forget to say the “I” after the s

When you’re reading this I hope you’re thinking of someone

And I hope he’s everything I’ve ever said and more
