For Today

you will be perfect, I swear I can feel it coursing through my veins,
for today you will do more than just fine,
by tomorrow you will be more than just mine;

I have a glowing heart, rampantly disregarding my energetic needs for something fast;
you are something glorious,
for today, I have learned everything about you I needed to know

so we laid in your bed, and talked about things,
we held each other like we've never met before;

but we felt like growing up,
we held each other for hours on end;

we sat at the end of your bed, and talked about us
we held each other like we've met a hundred times before;

I am expanding my horizons, and saying goodbye to my past
I feel confident in what we are;
so glad I met you
these things I won't ever forget,

I wanted to sing you to sleep, but those words I so tiredly sang,
were everlasting
and from these trees, we fall under
we fall for today,
for today is greater than the previous
