Now this for certain I know I don't understand how to just date If it requires holding back How many "I love yous" does it take? How long does one wait? To be included in holidays Not excluded from celebrations Eagerly introduced to everyone Yet the one on perpetual delay And in other matters I have no say How often are questions ignored? (As if I don't notice this tactic.) Our deepest secrets shared Or have we even dared? Why again does marriage scare? Not that I'm asking... I know there was once a proposal Some were purposely ineligible And I have been more than gullible Are you interested in intimacy? Do you really see me? What do you dream of for heaven's sake? I don't know how to do part way Or half in, as they say Perhaps someday But not today Not even close So far away ~Just L February 17, 2016 |
