When its Morning
When I see you
please be gentle with your gaze
let me know something happened
and it meant a little bit
and you can't stop smiling either
You told me last night
you were happier than you had been in so long
told me you forgot about everything
told me I was beautiful
a fact I had forgotten
or maybe never even known
You spoke of your feelings
and told me more about myself
and I was amazed
when you said you tried to write occasionally
and I hoped you would write something for me
one day.
Because I pour out most of my heart on these pages
scared to talk to you
and with nowhere else to turn.
So when I see you
and its daylight
and we both are scared
and second guessing
and full of what ifs?
be gentle
acknowledge night time forays into fantasy
with the right type of glance
or a touch on my sleeve
and let me know
I am not a mistake.
