I Hope He Makes Me Happy

Five years, ten months, and twenty-four days,
That's the amount of space that lies between him and I.
To describe him,
He's tall, muscular, and covered with tattoos.

Like I, he's not originally from the area
Our hometowns are almost the same distance away
We don't know many people around here,
And they don't know us.
Two strangers, stuck together.

We met by chance,
A random shoe store customer,
He called me cute, and gave me his number.

But there was that spark!
Upon the first meeting!
It made my head spin,
And every molecule within me told me to text him

And we met in a parking lot that night,
Our very first date the next,
The third, I met his family and we shared our first kiss
And more events came the following days

He brings my hopes up,
Listens to me,
Compliments me

I'm just patiently awaiting that one question
Even though he already considers us together
It's yet to be official

Only then, I feel like my happiness can
Begin.

The second and final part to these two poems that I wrote about what happened the days following the finale of my four year relationship; the first was about my ex-boyfriend and the girl that he's not seeing and how I only wished for his happiness. This one though... This one is about the man that I happened to have met by random chance and well, I'm kinda head over heels over.

What I mean by us not being official yet is he's told me himself he's not ready to ask me out yet. Does he care for me? Yes. We just haven't made things official yet due to him not being ready, but he still appreciates my company while he's still trying to figure things out. I do like him a lot though, and I'm sure you guys will be hearing a little bit about him in the future.

I'm just glad I was able to take a step forward with this guy; that's the most important part into me moving on and away from what Jeremy and I had.
