Marry me for my bad jokes.
\nThe ones that our dad would probably make.
\nAnd that sometimes you know… you find them funny.
\nOr make them to yourself.<\/p>\n
Marry me for the way we watch sad movies together. Marry me for the way we love creativity. Marry me for the cheesy messages I text you. Marry me for the fact we get “bingo’d” together. Marry me for the fact that we have this crazy thing. Marry me for the truth is I love you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Marry me for my bad jokes.

\nAs I cringe and cry with you since it was…. Blackfish .
\nAnd I didn’t know it was going to be\u00a0that depressing.
\n<\/strong><\/em>Or was going to make me sob.<\/p>\n
\nEvery word that you write makes me want to too.
\nAnd maybe we can become ghost writers.
\nOr come up with witty pen names.<\/p>\n
\nThe ones I hide for you or blatantly post on facebook.
\nAnd there will never be a shortage.
\nOr more truth to what I really mean.<\/p>\n
\nThen we can go off laugh at our obvious secret.
\nAnd then come up with names for a Frenchie.
\nOr a Husky since both are quite cute.<\/p>\n
\nWhere we know what the other is thinking.
\nAnd when things get hard we want to suffer together.
\nOr maybe this isn’t crazy at all.<\/p>\n
