It took me awhile
to know the difference
between her painted smile
and her self assurance
After all,
I was falling in love

The way we met,
our eyes fixated,
looking back
I should have waited,
but then one touch
and I was baited
After all,
I was falling in love

How long those warm
summer breezes blew
from across the bay into her room
where our passions played
with our hearts renewed
After all,
we were falling in love

Still, it took me awhile
to know the difference
between her love
and my assurance,
that I,
had fallen in love

Eh . . . It happens quite frequently, Bluesy, that two people can fall in love with one another and have different degrees of "falling in love." One is held very deep within the one, while the other may have just fallen in love with falling in love.

It's always been an odd little place. It was when I got here and it will be when I leave...again. You've certainly put you're all into it and we both will do as we wish, to be sure.

Always my best to you JerryPat, whatever you choose.

Love!  The highs of heightened senses -- and the lows of inner turmoil. I liked this, Bluesy.
