i wrote this november 12, 2003 to my wonderful (soon to be) girlfriend sarah reed...these words are still as meaningful as they were the day i wrote them...

the butterflies are new, everytime i see you
your smile weakens my knees
corny love songs stream through my head
as i glance into your eyes
waking up with only you on my mind.
wanting every moment
to be a moment spent with you
you are the ear
that is always there to hear me,
the hand that will someday keep mine warm
the arms to hold me,
because nothing else could be safer
dashboard confessional playing
as i stare at your photograph
the moments never as perfect as this
i told myself i wouldnt like someone this much,
yet i cant hide what was meant to be
the wait may seem like eternity,
yet if eternity is what it takes, so be it
