Promise The Stars

Hiking Mt. Rainier

And not in the you're sad let me confort you kinda way, I wanna be held just for the sake of it, with no other motives, not as an excuse for something to happen next.

I want to lay in bed late at night with my head on his chest and his arm wrapped around my waist. I want to feel the warmth of his body when he pulls me close in the middle of the night.

I want to be hugged randomly from behind while I make dinner or in the middle of the day just because he's feeling like it.

I want to cuddle in the couch while we watch a movie and feel his fingers idly trace patterns along my shoulder.

I want to sway to a slow song in the living room and being so close that I can hear his heartbeat and feel his laughter riple trough his chest when I miss a step and land on his foot.

My peers started swearing at around age 10, and if that is what language the speaking people of that age are using, nonspeaking people have the same right.
