Walking along the sea

Standing next to her

A smile I can barely hold back

But also feeling so unsure

What will she say?

If I reach out and take her hand

Do I really dare

To share my feelings like I planned?

Her hair is flowing softly

Lit by only the moonlight

Waves crash and grass sways

But she's the only thing in sight

Staring into her eyes

My face must be bright red

She's looking back at me

Even though nothing has been said

I take her hand in mine

And slowly start to say

"I know I may not be perfect

But I can't stop feeling this way"

She turns her face away

Hiding the blush and smile

She whispers back to me

"I've been waiting for a while"

Squeezing her hand

I work up the courage to speak

"You are what I've always dreamed of

And with you I no longer feel weak

I will hold you close

During hardships we face

And support you always

No matter what dreams you chase

I'm asking for your heart

And giving you mine in exchange

I promise to keep yours safe

No matter how life may change"

Still holding her hand

Now I'm holding my breath too

She smiles happily and says

"I love you too"
