That Power

I want a girl who's smart and funny and who, if I say something dumb for a laugh, is willing to say something two or three times as dumb to make me laugh. But who also gets weird and wise sometimes in a way I could never be. A girl who reads books that no one’s assigned to her. Whose curly brown hair has a line running through it. From where she put a tie to hold it up while it was still wet. Who'll let me sit in silence with her, not worrying about having to keep each other entertained but just soaking up our atmospheres, becoming one. That'll let me go on about the stupidest shit, without me realizing how much I'm smiling and rambling on, she'll catch my smile too. As we get lost in each other's eyes. A girl I'd never have to worry about looking cool in front of. I'd never even notice she was there and that's what I'm scared. Getting so comfortable I take her for granted, not realizing what she means to me. And someone who'll share their food with me cause they'll get full in a couple bites. This girl wouldn't be afraid to be herself, not afraid to show me off, and let me peek into their interests. Someone that'll take risks, who can take the lead, but also isn't scared to be vulnerable with me. Cause they know I'll be by their side. A shoulder to lean on. Someone to hold. To embrace fully.
