I don’t have her yet,
but she’d have freckles
with plump lips to kiss if I did.
She’d be my height,
maybe a little taller.
More legs of hers to wrap around me.
She’d have a confident gaze
even if she were unsure.
She’d laugh at my warped sense
of humor.
She’d regret nothing
but grow with each and every kiss.
She’d only fear going a day without me.
She’d breathe in the mountain air,
hiking the distance from my heart to
falling for my trust.
She’d be…
Well, she’d be you.
