Te Propongo

Today I propose that you let me fill you with roses
and dance with the butterflies I keep in my belly from loving you so much.
Today I propose that you let me into your story,
buy you a wedding dress and stay with you until the end of the road.

I propose that you say yes and I’ll stay for a lifetime,
I propose that you say yes and I’ll plant you a garden of joy.
I propose a life with me and if you can’t see it, I swear I’ll forget you
and I’ll forget all my dreams with you, I’ll find my own way somehow.
I propose you come to my door and tell me you accept that I live for you.

Today I propose that you fall asleep on my chest
and travel with the dawn while I watch over you, dreaming wide awake.
