my first time

This is the first time I have ever loved;
Yours, the first face I can not forget.
I think you are afraid, perhaps, and moved
To wonder whether you should do this yet.

I also am afraid, and yet I know
That wonder is a thing that needs a yes;
Should you step back and let this moment go,
Both you and I will have to live with less.

Please trust my love, as I must trust in yours.
It's strong as steel, as delicate as lace,
Immovable as battered granite shores:
I feel its power and unremitting grace.

So come, my love, and try this love with me;
Let your love speak, and then you will agree


***** We don't have to see ourselves
As rivers to the sea,
When we can be the basins
Into which Time flows.

We don't have to force ourselves
To run within our words,
When everywhere are mysteries
Upon which we can dance.

Why should we draw boundaries
When there's such joy in yes?

Let tragedies that reach us
Interrupt our laughter




Thank u K
for the words
