The Meeting

I never thought this day would come

But I finally got you to succumb

Waiting for you with bated breath

Glad we are doing this before our death

Palms sweaty, I'm a nervous wreck

As I sit here waiting on this deck

Will you show or will you bail

I guess only time will tell

We've been talking for a year

I just had to preserver

I see you walking down the street

No I can hear my heart beat

Will you stay or will you run

I feel our time has just begun

As you enter I almost faint

But you show much restraint

As you approach it is clear

Like me you are full of fear

Here you stand in front of me

There is no place I'd rather be

With the be the last time we meet

I wonder as I stare at my feet

With unknown courage I look at you

Your clothes look all brand new

What should my first words be

I want to say something crafty

I open my mouth to try and speak

But all I hear is a little squeak

You smile all the same

Then you say my name

At that moment I finally knew

That you really loved me too
