The other day
you said
and did
all the right things
for once.
It frightens me
To think
That we
Might actually
Become
What I want us to be
We have been
Bound together
In different ways
For so long
Me
Pretending
That my feelings
For you
Didn’t matter
Because
You
Never let me know
What your feelings
Are
Yet you
Didn’t allow me
To break free
of you
And now
The words have come
Like a precious
treasure
I hold them close
Reveling in the beauty
Of what
you said
Just
in case
You forget to say
Them again
