HESITATION
Your delicate like a flower
Slightly broken at the stem
And though I feel your power
You've been blown 'bout by the wind
You surprised me
- Quite vivacious
Though you strive to hold it in
Could sense the deluge
- Of your tears
From the drought you've held within
You threw me off, quite easy
Eyes softly speak unspoken words
But the fact is that I saw you
And in your subtleties I heard
How you're caught up in your longing
And how that's parallel to me
Despite the wary ways of love
Hope brings a sense - of urgency
I went there as a courtesy
Or some sense of obligation
Thought I'd have a cup of coffee
And a decent conversation
Added cream but dropped the sugar
Struck at once with fascination
By the woman sitting quietly
Who now surpassed my expectations
And now I have to mull this over
Was well received – I could have kissed you
But I'm a gentleman so I can't kiss
On the day that I've just met you
Still I could see this real potential
Our chemistry could surely be
Encouraged to a blazing fire
If left alone with you and me
You put a smile in my brain
And now I think to entertain it
Whether I should push this forward
Or should seek to just restrain it
I'm inclined to do the former
But what if I should drink some wine?
I'm a man of many virtues
But one or two come from the vine
Sometimes I have to quell this energy
If I'm to push this bliss to synergy
But in the end it's you who'd benefit
From my force-fed change of frequency
I just know me and moreover
Know the things that I must do
If I'm to quell this thinking man
And release this beast within for you
So I guess that's what I want to say
I am everything but perfect
I'm attentive though I'm stubborn
And I do everything on purpose
I'm more than an ardent lover
Filled with thoughts that might astound you
But if you break me down to pieces
I'm much more than they'd amount to
I'm delighted that I've met you
And I feel this inclination
To satisfy this sudden urge
To seek another invitation
To come to you at once
And put aside our reservations
But if I did I'd more than kiss you
Without any hesitation
