(4) We Count Castles In Clouds

Don’t want this, don’t want that, don’t know what I want but I want you. I lose you at the bookstore & find you five, seven, ten minutes later with a book in your hands and your eyes on the page and I laugh (so quietly). I get lessons on how to eat an ice cream cone and I teach about how to be the Statue of Liberty. I can be trapped in a car going nowhere but trying to get back as fast as we can, dire straits, desperate situations, and I’m with you and I laugh and laugh. I share the fireworks (5 minutes), I share the nights (8 hours), I share my heart (Always). The rest of the world falls apart like puzzle pieces tipped over the edge, but you stay with me and you hold my hand and we pick colors and shapes where once there was none. That is hope. That is love. That is what I want.
