Engaging in casual conversations
Attempting to mask hesitation & reservations
Nerves flutter like first- date butterflies
Apprehensive & Uneasy
Trying to peer into his soul by way of his eyes
As we continue to
“Feel each other out”
Hmmm..
Wonder what he’s thinking about??

:::

Truth be told
I’m ready to fall in
{AGAIN}
But he’s gotta meet me ½ way
And promise, this time he’ll commit & stay

:::

Searching his tone for emphasis & inflections
Traces of my own reflection
In hopes of revealing
How he’s REALLY feeling
A candid disclosure
Trying to maintain my composure
But listening to the sultry, soothing bass in his voice
Doesn’t make that an infallible choice

:::

It’s an innate attraction
Fueled by a mutual passion
The comforting sense of familiarity
Dismissed the need for further clarity
Besides, I’m a lover not a fighter
It’s been too long, “Let’s cease fire”…

:::

Music to my ears
As he pulls me near
And says everything I’ve been waiting to hear
In attempts to mend
He offers an invitation to transcend
Throwing Caution to the wind
And I accept, Love.....Let’s do it {again}!
