True.

I love this.

I Once Had a Dream

I once had a dream;
It was so simple or so it seemed;
To find my one true love;
The one that was a gift sent from above;

To live out my days happy and content;
Giving all my love and devotion to its fullest extent;
To grow old;
Have my stories told;

Stories filled with love, laughter and excitement;
With very little sadness or disappointment;
To wake up everyday and see her beautiful face;
And each year go to some new and wonderful place;

To have that special person make my house a home;
With, as silly as it sounds, complete with garden gnomes;
That special someone to listen while I complain;
Or keep me company while I fixed the drain;

Someone to give me hug when I was sad;
Or give me support when I was mad;
To have date nights;
Watching her smile as we look at all the sights;

Someone to cuddle with on the porch swing;
Smile when she doesn't know that I'm listening to her sing;
The joy of getting a random "I miss you" text;
And never knowing what she is going to send next;

Smelling the sweet scent of her hair;
Being happy when people say that we are the perfect pair;
Someone that could make me go from good to great;
My one true love, my soulmate;

That beautiful woman that is also my best friend;
Together, forever, until the end;
I don't know if you've been looking for me too;
But, I tried so hard to find you;

I'm so sorry that I've failed you, failed us;
And as my life begins to see its dusk;
I can only pray that you've found happiness;
Even if my heart is filled with sadness;

For you, my love (whoever you are), deserve a happy heart;
I just hope and pray he is kind, gentle, and smart;
Because you deserve the very best;
And as I give up on my quest;

I just want to say one last thing;
I would have given anything for you to have my ring;
It would have been so wonderful to have met you;
To love you, and begin my life anew;

Now...as I watch my heart float away down the stream;
I can only think...I once had a dream.
