She probably wonders
as she ponders
wondering what to do

Why he calls her sweetheart
why he writes, I love you

who is to say
what makes the heart
feel this way

when a writer writes
the words are revealed

what fits in to place
is how they truly feel

there may be a moment
a simple second stutter

until it feels just right
these words that we utter

we could list all the reasons
and everything under the sun

but it's a mirrored murmur moment
from when she called him, "Hun"

Brad

.

good question  

love these lines you laid down:

'a simple second stutter'   and

'a mirrored murmur moment'

enjoyed..

Brad,

I am so glad that I read "just one more" before bed.  This is wonderful and I really enjoyed it.
