date a girl who dreams.
You might recognize this girl by the flowers she grows. Or by the poetry she spouts at short notice, because she knows it by heart. You may never have heard of it, but she doesn't exactly care for labels or climb the bandwagon. Or you may know her by the mud color she insists on putting on her walls, though she calls it chocolate, and maybe by the shiny stars she has stuck there. You might recognize her by the silliest limericks she sends you at midnight.
You will recognize her by the faraway look in her eyes, even when she is doing the most mundane things.
She is the one whose answers may not really match your questions.
She is the one who ends up somewhere she never meant to go, because she followed a song there. Or a brightly colored bird. Or a book in a stranger's hands.
She is the one who comes home with an assortment of weird objects, because she thinks they are cute. or interesting or wants to do DIY projects with them.
She is the one who plays with a stray kitten for hours, and sometimes stray iguanas and porcupines, or whatever she finds. She is the ones that kittens follow home.
Date a girl who dreams, because she is the one who can create your dreamland for you, right here, on earth. She is the one who can blow your worries away, like she blows the bubbles from a cheap soap water solution in plastic rings. She is the one who can make an ordinary day special. She is the one whose coffee warms up not just your hands, but your heart and soul. A day with her, lasts in your memory for a lifetime. And a lifetime with her, will pass by like a moment.
If you are attracted by her ethereal presence, smile at her. Let her know, that you know dreams matter, whether or not they come true. Hold her hand, and let her take you wherever her imagination flies. Hold her hand, and let her know that she can fly as high as she wants, because you will not let her get lost. Hold her hand, and hold her close. Close enough for her to see that your eyes hold dreams, dreams of her. Hold her close, and let her know that's where you will be, when she wakes up.
Because if you date a girl who dreams, you date a girl who loves life.
Because her stories create magic.
Because her presence reminds you of everything you ever wanted.
Because, though she has a faraway look on her face, she will always be close to you.
Because, for you, she will always snap out at a moment's notice, from wherever she is.
Date a girl who dreams, and you will be dating a girl who cares.
Date a girl who dreams, and be prepared to let go of your hold on reality.
Date a girl who dreams, and be ready for the ride of your lifetime!
Maybe she carries her heart on her sleeve. Maybe she hides
it behind he big glasses. big clothes. extra big bag. And if she does,
you will just have to look. Because she is there, right there, behind
the owl glasses.
You might recognize this girl by the flowers she grows. Or by the poetry she spouts at short notice, because she knows it by heart. You may never have heard of it, but she doesn't exactly care for labels or climb the bandwagon. Or you may know her by the mud color she insists on putting on her walls, though she calls it chocolate, and maybe by the shiny stars she has stuck there. You might recognize her by the silliest limericks she sends you at midnight.
But the surest sign of a girl ho dreams, is that she is a girl. Look closely, and you will find, whether or not she fits the list, that every girl is a dreamer.
Date a girl who dreams, and you will be dating a girl who loves.
