Gold Please

A smile that causes my heart to hold its breath. Eyes above everything else, your graceful beauty expresses silent secrets wishing to see me see you, see us. Fingers crossed.

My mind and the steady thumps within my chest-whispers "I will, I can, I do, should you allow it". Will you tell me true? Will you hurt the essence of my heart? Risk and our worth? 
The risk will not deter me. A truthful love is my desire and I'm willing to sacrifice a piece of my heart if I must to find it in your beautiful smile.
Your eyes employs my soul sigh deep. 
I'm falling against gravity. 
I will never lie to you. 
This feels too right that it scares me. 
I refuse to run away. 

Are you real? Can I touch you to be sure this naught a dream that me waking up again thinking "where is she?". 
Please Lord allow this not be just another vivid dream. 
If you are then I will name you as to create a file never to forget.
Desire? Destiny? Which do you like best? D.D. it is then.

D.D. I hope desperately hope that you decide to stay and see how "meant to be" evolves into "made to be". As we become more than possible. Worry not of what others my think, it's only your thoughts that I want to hold onto, your opinions to be the light outside shining in. When you finally allow me to kiss away every one of your doubts, I will. Should you doubt a lot I will never let my lips leave yours. It needs not be doubt that serves only for our souls to merge at the mouthpiece.

It already seems to be
more of the ceiling despite the floor. 
Can this be real for a change? Not a game?
Hello Belief.
I gaze in every direction waiting, no shoes have dropped and should that happen is it okay that I don't care? That I will rather work without pay to attain all of you? My heart beat is a baffled one. This is the first that I have accepted vulnerability. Uncertainty feels like an embrace that refuses to release not of fear but of a love so intense everyday welcomes it to remain "brand new".

Lord thanks for getting back to me, please let this be. I'll traverse even through the darkest trees until I find the meadowlands...home.
It's beyond any shimmering moment. Tome mi amor de la mano por favor.
(Love please take my hand)
