Hopeful Reality

And when I find that someone Whether they be masculine, feminine, Or caught somewhere in between I want our love to be seen As just that. Love. Not something to be examined Poked and processed Peered at by scientists. And I hope that everything That I have seen played out In the cinema of my memory Does not discourage me From having the courage To love them fully. Because that is the thing That truly terrifies me. Believing that this person Can want me for the rest of eternity. Selflessly handing me the keys To their heart's hopes and dreams Fears and humiliations Like I am the only one Who can fulfill them Fix them Replace them With thoughts greater than What they could imagine. And the only thought That is more terrifying Then all of this happening Is never getting a chance to live it. So don't you dare Take it away from me Before it even has a chance to become Reality.
