Hope vs Fear

1
His steps draw near
Questions run rampant in my mind
What could he say to
soothe the anxiety of my heart?
I open my mouth to voice them
-No voice comes out.
I take one step from my hiding place.
Maybe I want to be found?
Faced with hope, with fear whispering in my ear.
My mind says retreat but my heart presses forward.
I enter his view and am rewarded by his smile.

Hope 1 Fear 0

To be continued. Maybe?

I like to talk during movies. Daisies are my favorite flowers. I'll learn how to tie your ties. Any morning with you is what I call a good morning. Sometimes I just want to sit and eat cereal with you at night. I'll probably warm my cold feet on your calves. I'll be your best friend. I love Scooby Doo Band-aids but I hate the show. I still eat Flintstone vitamins. I shouldn't have caffeine after four. I'll let you touch my hair. You'll see love in my eyes. Sometimes I'll take you on dates-cater to a man like he should be. I'll probably steal your favorite t-shirt-But I'll look good in it. I want to watch old Kung Fu movies and laugh at how the voice doesn't match the lip motion. My third favorite color is purple. I'll master your favorite meal. I'll be your favorite dessert. I'll let you have the last piece of bacon. Sometimes. I'll baby you when you're sick. I'll be your companion. I'll leave you funny post-its with laffy taffy jokes. I'll value your opinion. I don't like orange and apple juice separately, but it's heaven mixed together. I'll watch your favorite sport, but you gotta watch mine. I'm scared of feet. I'll rub your back- give you one of my special little hand massages. We gotta watch Spongebob on Saturday mornings. I love to laugh and was born to smile. I sing in the shower, washing dishes, in the car. I love puddles. I'll always try to do something, at least once a day, to put a smile on your face.
