By God,

Have you ever walked into the same place to see an old face

and cringe at the potential?



Have you ever liked someone so much that it crept by slowly as if time has stoppedwhen you are with them?



Have you crawled into a dark hole and choke on your words and stutter,

even though you can blame them on speech impediments?

I have. By God, have I felt that way.



I see a potential future that could click like two gears in a clock.

the constant ticking would mark the words we both spoke.

The friction is unbearable, but the grinds do not exist.

I wonder if the time has come for me to fuel the fire.

I wonder if I would come a second too late.



Regardless of my doubt, I want to give this a chance.

Regardless of my reservedness, I want to pour my soul out

onto someone who I thinkĀ  will become entranced.

I just got to swallow and shake my core a bit.
