Not holding back (not even a little bit)

You don't want me to ever hold back

So far that has been an ability I lack

I tell you all my thoughts and feelings

And all my silly daily dealings

I open up my heart to you

Not knowing what else to do

I can't change your position

Right now I have to use some intuition

To figure out how you feel

Sometimes not knowing is hard to deal

I know what you are going to say

But that is not why I am telling you this today

I want you to know that some days are hard

But I am willing to play that card

I don't want you to think it is easy

The thought of losing you though makes me queasy

I want you to that no matter how difficult it gets

I have no intention of calling it quits

If you are not ready to let your feelings free

That is just fine by me

Just know that there will be some days

I may be in a bit of a disarray

I want you to know that I really do love you

It is ok if you don't feel the same as I do

I have a friend that helps me be happy

And keeps my life from going back to crappy

So when you feel like I am not quite right

There is no need to catch a fright

I just have to remember to be positive again

And know one day our life together will begin

I don't want to look for another right now

I feel like that would be cheating on you somehow

Yes you are good for me

That should be plain to see

If you ever want me to stop this show

All you have to do is just say so

Until you tire of my love for you and my dream for us

Every opportunity to be with you will be a plus

I love you more and more each day

I know you may not believe what I say

But I have hundreds of poems and a book

You can always take a second look

They all the same thing about me

It is only with you that I want to be

I would love to know how you feel from time to time

I hope asking you, you don't think is a crime

I don't want you to be uncomfortable with this journey

And end up stressed out on a gurney

Let's just have as much fan as we can

And one day I will finally get to say I am your man
