Nothing has to happen <br />the moment is enough <br />more is indulgence <br />and patients is a virtue <br />less will let us wonder <br />and fill tomorrow with daydreams of the other <br />when you are gone <br />and i am there <br />we can stare at mid air <br />and hear whispers in the wind <br />gone, <br /> <br />Proof that romance is not dead? <br /> <br />So maybe its best that nothing happens <br />whisked of our feet in a moment <br />my heart beats too many times <br />this is not a race <br />I respect seconds <br />but tonight I can let them fly free <br />lost in your eyes <br />caught in silence <br />decisive moments <br />I allowed to slide by <br /> <br />What am I afraid of? <br /> <br />When nothing has to happen <br />your hand touches mine <br />I divert my eyes to the night sky <br />the moon glows <br />stars shine <br />clouds move <br />and I see more then I want <br />could my being be meant for you <br />ill give moments to have a life instead <br />I have lived in lust but would die for love <br />one creates the other <br /> <br />am I choosing the right one? <br /> <br />something has to happen <br />if I let this time pass <br />and stress no cause <br />there must be an effect <br />I’ve felt the reaction <br />and know the chain of events I wish to ensue <br />but was I touched to easily <br />grabbed by emotion <br />dropping my motive <br />with each word from you pink lips <br />we shared tails <br />I gave much <br />you gave more <br /> <br />what will happen?<br /><br />Daniel Steele<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/nothing-has-to-happen/
