As we speak, our minds race through <br /> The hopes, the possibilities of just what might have been <br /> Secretely, we thought that maybe after years apart <br /> There may be that magic, that special moment <br /> where we both wanted the same thing at the same time <br /> <br /> Love mixed with fear, pain mixed with pleasure <br /> Me, you, the total of us together, forever <br /> <br /> <br /> It felt so familiar, It felt so right <br /> But, there were times it felt frightening, risky <br /> I'm fearful of trying, even one more time <br /> What do we do, who goes first with the declaration? <br /> <br /> Ask me, please ask me first <br /> For I'm a coward, I'm afraid<br /><br />ANNE P LadeeAnne MURRAY<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/as-we-speak/
