hope

I don’t expect anything
Not the worst
Not the best
And certainly not perfection
[how annoying would it be
to fall for someone who’s perfect?]

I hope for you
I hope for flaws
I hope for scars
I hope for insecurities
Because God knows I’ve got mine

I hope for your trust
I hope for your humanity
I hope for your emotions
Your mistakes, your smiles, your laughs
The times [I hope] you
say or do dumb things
I hope for your vulnerability
To share those things with me
To trust me with them
To trust me with you

I hope for your trust
To trust me with you
All of you

I don’t expect anything

I simply hope
for you.
