If I Could, I Probably Would

I miss you as if I haven’t even met you yet.

I want you in my arms as if it was the first time.

I want your presence around me all over again for the first time.

I want to look you in the eyes for the first time again.

I want to feel my palms get sweaty when I get out of my car to see you.

I want to overthink where to go for our first date.

I want to think hard about what we’ll do next time, even before we wrap up the day.

I want to wake up right by your side.

I want to kiss you before I go to bed.

I want to ask you questions about your childhood to see that light in your eyes.

I want to ask you about your future, so I could see the fire that drives me wild.

I want to forget everything I know, to find out about it again.

I want to go back in time to see how you were before you had to grow up.

I wish I could go back in time to save you from all the things you shouldn’t have had to experience.

I wish I could give you everything that you should have already.

I wish I were prepared from the get-go.

I wish there were a way to make you fall in love in several different ways.

I wonder how you fell for all the other suckers that didn’t do everything right.

I wonder what made you choose me out of all the suckers in the world.

I wonder why God made us cross paths the way we did.

I wonder what God has in store for the rest of our life.

I wonder if I’d still be looking for you, wondering if you existed, even I wasn’t in that exact spot where I first laid eyes on you, heard your voice, and got the heart eye emojis.

If I had a genie, my first wish would be to go back to that time to take more pictures, record more videos, and take it all in.

The future is one exciting ass moment for me, but I’ll always be grateful for what happened.
