Do I...?

Do I want more than you can give?

Do I ...?

 

Do I want too much?

Do I come too close?

Do I trust my heart to

hold back...be patient?

Do I startle with my intensity?

Do I wrongly assume

We are captives of the same breeze

that buoys our spirits up...

carries us away?

Should I hold back...

tell my heart you are not ready

for all it wants to give?

I do not force my heart

or yours

to think or speak

or freely give...

My heart is free

to point my affection

in any direction

It chooses...

and it has chosen you...

like water circling the drain

the eddy of your mystery

draws me

and I follow willingly...

I dream I touch my tongue to honeyed dew

and taste sweetness

beyond memory

or imagination...

There is nothing about you

I do not covet

for my very own...

would not hold

in an endless embrace

but I fear

making you fear...

losing your freedom

to soar...

to be what you were born to be...

I see in you such wonderful things...

my heart loves and wants

but I do not want to

frighten you away...

please tell me

if I press too hard

or place my needs

above your own

I want us to be

delicious friends...

then...

we can become what

we are meant to be...

Is that what you still want?

 

I hope so...

these dances have to be done without words, because our questions are already answered, and they only speak our fears, which in cases like these, are justified
