Contemplation

Do I tell him?
Do I let him know?

After last night
It has to show,

What is this feeling?
I'm so confused,

I don't want to get hurt,
am I just getting used?

When he touches me,
My heart seems to melt,

Am I just being foolish?
Can he know how it felt?

Do I look out the window?
To watch him leave,

Will he be looking back?

I guess many people will relate to this - of both genders.
Nicely written.

Beautiful presentation... the painting and poem are a perfect match! *S* I think many of us are well acquainted with such contemplations. *S*

To give this girl a voice was quite a challenge I guess, you show a great sensitivity through your words. I believe almost every woman can relate to such a contemplation. And men should learn to understand!

Good job.

Love,
Margherita
