WITH SOME EMOTIONAL LEEWAY

Folder: 
JOURNAL # 41
my heart all on her own
has danced up to your door
silly eager life preserver she is
but how do I reveal such a thing
without the fear of scaring you away
with little more than this to confess
such an unfair dilemma my silly tears
choose to drop themselves upon
I'm bound to lose what little leeway
I've gathered from you to know
what little I now know
so I carefully slip on the mask of
the kind new friend
the mystery will swallow me whole
once again
and I will be left aching
wondering how do I get out of this
hopeless mess
and excavate from your own shared
thoughts
a ribbon of truth we both can be comfortable
within and grow warmer towards
each other so to better live with
the knowledge as to what we are building
this new relationship upon
a lasting light and love woven into
a fond companionship
or just mere nice friends from so far away
from each other who are lonely
and just like to talk so to not be so alone
anymore..............

Author's Notes/Comments: 

needless to say this never came to pass.  I thought ok it was sad but it too was never meant to be or else it would have been. I always think of that old saying you can lead a horse to water but.............. sighs.........
