Quietly I Wonder


he has hesitation
I know it
I have come
with my own
set of fears
I want
so badly to
just open up
and tell him
how I feel
I want
to say
it’s ok
I have been
hurt too
so I know
all about
not trusting
I want
to say
move a
little closer
take a risk
maybe this time
it is about
the give
not the take
take this chance
it might be
the right one
but then
I wonder
am I
talking to
him or me
so I
just remain
quiet

OneSlick~
You keep writing with such 'real' thought~

By all means ... do not 'remain quiet'~
Many a road to understanding has been bridged with the first word~

One of those times you aren't sure that leap of faith is the right timing. I hope it works out for you.

terrific thoughts from you, Helen

sometimes it's best to remain quiet..I hardly ever take that advice and that is why I am where I am..I guess.

Dare! Great write. Fears can be overcome just by doing what causes your fears.

Speak out.
Love, Margherita
