So Perfect

For the first time in a while,
A little happiness I feel,
Today I've actually worn a smile,
Thinking of your head on my shoulder for real.

Whether I actually deserve,
Is up to debate,
But I remain surprised how you preserve,
That being together is fate.

Maybe it is our vision,
Of the day we meet,
Or it is our decision,
That there is nothing more sweet.

Either way it instills hope,
In a better tomorrow,
Without you I could never cope,
With all this sorrow.

Because when I know you are there,
It makes everything feel alright,
No matter how horrible or how much despair,
I know that we will make it through the night.

But most of all,
It is the future that lies ahead,
Our kids playing in the leaves of fall,
You falling asleep in my arms in bed.

The day we say "I do",
The day you bless the world with a son,
Are the thoughts that remind me I love you,
And that for me you are the one.

It all sounds so perfect,
At least to me,
It makes life worth it,
I've come to see.
