2nd Chance

I opened my heart's door and saw you



standing there at love's doorstep



asking again to be let in.







I stood in silence, hesitating as past



questions soon begin



to surface in



my mind







I took your hand and lead you



Lead you through the corridors of emotions past.



Down the halls of endless tears, sleepless nights



And feelings of being not wanted by



you.







But now, here you stand, with me



face to face, heart to heart



hand in hand with fingers intertwined



Mine in yours, Yours in mine







Standing Together You and I



in more than just the physical plane







With the utterance of each apologetic prose



Another of my garments constructed of pain



falls helplessly to the floor.



You continue to speak until



My emotional self stands naked before you.







I close my eyes



As you caress my body of confusion



with your understanding, I feel helpless



each touch removing the shadows of doubt



As you take your time



Not leaving any thought untouched.







And as my heart beats faster in the anticipation of more



My mind still races with more questions.







Are you really here with me? Or is this just an illusion



of what I want to be? You and I



Standing Together.







As I open my eyes I am met by yours



And I see you too stand, undressed of your pain



You stand



bearing your emotions and soul.







I embrace your soul



and caress your emotions with my understanding.



I hold them close, never wanting to let go







I want your heart to want me



I want to feel your love



Inside me



More than before



When our love was young.





Wet with anticipation



My heart waits for the reception of your



Passion inside me.
