Reading My Mind This was not the first time she told me she liked me. I always responded in kind... "Yes I like you too." She seemed to be reading my mind. And yet I know that she believes that we are completely different in so many ways. For I have found myself living in a large circle of female friends and for many years raising her daughter was her one and only plan and as a woman completely dedicated to her daughter she found little time to share her day with a special man. I felt like I could understand the words she was hesitant to say. That's when I said, "Do you want me to go away?" And that's when she said, "No... I like you and I want you to stay."

Sounds like there is romance in the near future for you. *grin* I can't wait to see what poems you come up with from it. There is nothing like the special poems of someone falling in love. BRAVO!!!I really like this poem. Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

JamesMichael - I love happy endings!! Well written. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |
