It's a place of joy and bliss.\nIt's a feeling that you rarely feel. Like a moment in time, frozen in a lullaby.\nThis is what I feel with Scafen, like my broken heart has found a place it belongs.\nThis long poem below is for you, Scafen.\nI know I can never truly express my feelings towards you, so I'm going to try to write it in the way I know best. A poem\nYou are my warm fire, my snowy night, and the best present a dragon could wish for.\nI will never leave you, and I will always love you.\nYou are the world which my soul yearns for. Here's my present to you~\"\nDerek 12/24/2018\n?Merry Christmas Everyone!~\nDown below you'll find a romantic poem I've written for my love, Scafen.\nThe poem and art is a surprise present to him, so I hope he likes it~\nThis writing will be a lot different than my other stories because I find this type of writing expresses more emotion.\nI hope you enjoy, but most of all I hope you have an amazing Christmas with the ones that love you. You are treasured.\nThe art above is drawn by the lovely LuckyLombaX\nThank you so much for the commission!\nLink to her FA: https://www.furaffinity.net/user/luckylombax/\nAs I was writing this song I was listening to a song by the Pentatonix that always gives me the feels.

I love him_\n\n_I think about our future, the Christmas we could share._\n\n_I can close my eyes and just picture it now..._\n\n_My Christmas Miracle._\n\n_Opening my eyes in the morning, looking over my shoulder at the handsome dragon next to me._\n\n_Hearing your warming voice that only you can bring to my soul._\n\n_I can imagine us waking up and running downstairs together, paw-in-paw as we blush._\n\n_We'd rush to the Christmas tree and find it surrounded with various presents we'd bought for each other._\n\n_We'd both sit down and eat a quick breakfast and then soon after take a seat on the couch._\n\n_We'd tell stories and thank each other for the presents._\n\n_..._\n\n_But in reality, the presents meant nothing to us._\n\n_It meant nothing to me._\n\n_Because you are already all I need_\n\n_My Christmas Miracle_\n\n_We'd walk outside in the snow, looking into each others eyes as we stared up at the snow sprinkling down in slow motion._\n\n_I'd turn my face to yours and smile warmly at you, letting a tender paw cup your cheek._\n\n_I'd then jump up with you, and with our paws around each other,\u0026nbsp;both of us giggling from the awkward position, we'd start dancing_\n\n_We'd rub noses, and take slow steps as the snow fell, watching as you cried in happiness._\n\n_My Christmas\u0026nbsp;Miracle_\n\n_I'd lick your tears and cry with you out of happiness as._\n\n_After that we'd finally go back inside, curling our tails around each other._\n\n_You'd walk towards the bedroom, swishing your tail, but then look back at me in confusion as I told you to come over._\n\n_I'd then point above the doorframe and you'd blush_\n\n_A mistletoe._\n\n_We'd both blush deeply, and then our gazes would soften, just admiring each other in the Christmas lighting._\n\n_I'd have to reach up my neck, since you were so tall, and close my eyes with yours._\n\n_Then, I'd slowly bring my muzzle up to yours, and in a passionate moment that I wish would never end..._\n\n_We kissed._\n\n_I never thought someone would love me enough to do that..._\n\n_And yet you love me, and I can't believe it. I really can't..._\n\n_My Christmas Miracle_\n\n_You cry with me again as we pull back from the kiss._\n\n_I'd fall onto the couch in tears, completely shaking in confusion and shock at why you'd love me_\n\n_And you'd comfort me, cuddling me closely._\n\n_Soon after we'd head to the bedroom and see where that took us._\n\n_But what does this have to do with anything?_\n\n_What should I take out of this?_\n\n_..._\n\n_Should I be happy and just say nothing?_\n\n_No._\n\n_No I can't. You are worth so so so so much to me, and I want to tell you your worth to me. Truly._\n\n_So here below is how far and wide my love for you is._\n\n_I'm not making this up. I truly feel this, Scafen. I love you and I want you forever. I know I do._\n\n_I can't imagine my life without you_\n\n_You have given me a hope that I thought I'd never have_\n\n_That I thought... I shouldn't deserve._\n\n_And yet you do._\n\n_You've given me the life I've always wanted_\n\n_You've pushed me to face the danger so that I can grasp the hope at the end of it_\n\n_Now, because of you my life is in the best place I could ever be_\n\n_I truly wouldn't want anything different._\n\n_But when I hear your doubts... Your worries about us, I tear up_\n\n_Because I know that I've already chosen you_\n\n_That's why I kissed you that one night. I knew it back then_\n\n_Maybe I'm crazy, and I know it's been short so far..._\n\n_But_my heart calls for YOU\n\n_Every minute I think about you and how I yearn to feel your touch again_\n\n_How I yearn to cuddle with you, to make your dreams come true_\n\n_I cannot live this life without you, Scafen_\n\n_I write these words and I'm trying to think what to say to make this happen!_\n\n_I want you! I've chosen it! You're worth it to me._\n\n_I just wish time could pass so you could say the same for me._\n\n_But it will take time_\n\n_And I will wait as long as it takes. I will wait because I care for you_\n\n_That. That is what Christmas is about. It's about showing your love to one another_\n\n_I need to show you my love in words._\n\n_I know you, Scafen. Everything you do is unique to you._\n\n_You are an elaborate puzzle piece that I LOVE trying to put together~_\n\n_Every second I think, \"That's my Scafen. My love. He wants me!~\"_\n\n_I don't think I deserve it, but I know I want it_\n\n_And you need to know I'd give it all for you_\n\n_Babe, I already have._\n\n_And I would drop everything to save you if you were in trouble._\n\n_I mean this._\n\n_I will_ never_leave you or abandon you._\n\n_I will stay by your side, and work through any problems we have_\n\n_We may not know everything... and we may have desires unmet if we choose to stay together_\n\n_But I'd absolutely miss out on a few things then to miss out on the most extraordinary, extravagant, impossible miracle that you are~_\n\n_To miss out on the life that I've always dreamed of, the life that I want to live with you_\n\n_You have stolen my heart, Scafen._\n\n_One day, this picture you see drawn\u0026nbsp;above can\u0026nbsp;become real._\n\n_WE can make it happen_\n\n_This is OUR future._\n\n_We can choose._\n\n_And I choose you._\n\n_One day we'll have our first Christmas together, buy a tree and lights._\n\n_We'll light a fire in the fireplace, and dance outside in the snow_\n\n_Then we'll go inside and share a the most intimate kiss under the mistletoe_\n\n_This can be our future. I will do everything I can to make it possible._\n\n_You. Are. Worth it._\n\n_You are my miracle._\n\n_This season is about love, and I can't live without telling you these things._\n\n_I could go on forever, and maybe I'll write something longer on a personal message to you later... But I want the world to know that this is what love is... This is how I feel for you, a male like myself, and I'm not ashamed_\n\n_I'm so happy!~_\n\n_You are the one I want, and I'll wait._\n\n_I love you, Scafen._\n\n_Merry Christmas_\n\n_My Christmas Miracle._\n\n_To anyone who's still reading, please. Stop what you're doing and love your family._\n\n_They won't be there forever... I've already lost mine..._\n\n_Show them how much you love them. Cherish them like I cherish my mate._\n\n_Make them know they're loved._\n\n_And have a Merry Christmas_\n\n  \n  \n\n"}
