Choice
by Eve Adam, a.k.a. Harmonic Eve
My thoughts fill with words I'm afraid to speak,
So in my confusion,
my lips touch your cheek.
You smile at me and I feel your youth.
You seem so mature, but is it the truth?
And if
I would give myself to you,
Thus yielding my body as others do,
Would you again be here with me?
Each time I looked,
what would I then see?
I'm living a life now safe and secure,
Afraid to dare, though fully mature.
One
moment of choosing to take a chance
Could alter my life forever -- one glance
From YOUR smiling eyes could tip
the balance --
The love of a lifetime, or only a dalliance.
Would you again be here with me?
Each time I looked,
what would I then see?
