anythinggoes

This poem I wrote a couple of years ago, when I met the woman of my dreams for the first time. I have now married her and love her more than anything else, and she knows it.

Standing in a lone desolate spot. I catch a glimpse of you from across the room. A smile comes to your face. I turn away; my hands become sweaty and tense. My heart beats quicker and quicker. When you are close I grow nervous. Nervous about doing something wrong, saying somethings stupid. I wish I could tell you how I feel. Yet, there is fear and worry. Fear of rejection, or being laughed at. But my heart yearns; yearns to reach out and touch your silky hair and your crimson lips and hold you close in my arms. Even if only for a moment. That moment would last a lifetime. But somehow my fears and worry will be overcome. Overcome with love for you.
