To the future that is distant,
\nBut fast approaching, Hi.
\nI hope I can catch my dreams like fireflies,
\nBottle them in a jar labeled mine and hope.
\nHope that my future will be as bright as the jar with fireflies.<\/p>\n
Hope to find love that builds,
\nLike a wooden cottage hidden underneath the treeline.
\nTake my son on boat rides on the river in the morning.
\nTo the future that is distant,
\nBut fast approaching, Hi.<\/p>\n
I hope you illuminate the rest of my life,
\nCasting a shadow on the not so bright moments.
\nHaving me seated around a bonfire with my family and friends,
\nSharing memories like old war stories.
\nFeel your presence even when you are not around,
\nAnd create a future where we are finally united.<\/p>\n
So to the future that is distant,
\nBut fast approaching,
\nI hope our ending is like that Avicci song,
\nWhere that boy releases the fireflies and the music drowns the words.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
