| "Something's Possible" It's sort of fun to play here, to imagine that you care, to pretend that I could be your only one... I've been taken on this detour into and through parts of you I never even dreamed of. Up until now you were just another face, just another guy... I'm not saying I love you... yet... (That never works out for me) But I am saying I may just understand you and I may just respect you... So many things you've said I could have said too. Those words are thoughts from my head. It's all different but I can see the similarities. It won't be good much longer... I know just how I am. I may just fall into another obsession and we both know how those end up. So, I'm not saying I have a chance and I'm not saying I'm sure if I want one yet... But maybe we should consider it, afterall, we see each other. At least I see you... I know you have other "prospects" you've told me but if none of it works and you still long for someone who might just get it... All I can offer is myself, my understanding... Maybe, this time, my heart but I am afraid too. I have been broken and bruised and I know if anyone would understand that, it would be you ... So there it is I am proposing something that may never flower, but if you are curious I'm sure you'll know what to do. 4-20-01 Back to Poetry Page |
