All In



It seems somewhat bizarre, that never have I
ever, went out on a limb so far! Be that as it
may, I believe with patience all will be ok.
I'll be wishing I could stay. I just hope our
energies match up, and we cannot get enough.
I want my happy ever after, so let's not let this
end in a disaster. I mean we both know what
were after, so, what all else should matter,
besides I'm ready for the laughter! I have
butterflies every time I think of you, I often
wonder do you have them too? I hope that
whatever does take place, leaves a smile
on our face, and don't seem like it's a race
cause this memory cannot be replaced.
Excited, scared and stressed, I confess, yet
feel as though we will pass the test! So now
it's up to us, will this be real or simply lust?
Will it move on or will it bust? If in our hearts
we trust, and know no matter what it is, it
can be discussed. I believe in fate, and know
this didn't happen by mistake, I know in life it
seems as though it's late, now let's see if we
both were worth the wait.
