Meet Me Hold my gaze I won’t be the first to look away the scenarios open to us are limitless let’s have fun we’ve been serious too long in honor of love we’ve paid so many words in debt of the song yet we’re still not able to securely sing along Take a new look I’ve calculated the losses they are nil in comparison to what’s already on the table just a walk together may ease much of the tension hearts in unison pretend there is nothing to fear I’ll walk if you will meet me halfway there |

Oh I loved this one, as compromise and taking steps to rectify distance between two people is the only glue there is in cementing good relationships! Great poem. Please visit me at my new homepage: |

taking the first step is sometimes the hardest. Meeting halfway, helps the healing process. Beautiful poem. |

"yet we’re still not able to securely sing along" This jumps lept out at me and is so very true. We never quite trust ourselves and usually wind up shooting our selves in the foot. I wonder where in the history of humankind did we become so unsure of our own direction? Good writing. "I am not now that which I have been." |
