Contemplating the Blind Date

I think this is perfection, the feelings I've grown to know,
But if they are not, please, someone tell me so.
The words are all just what I need to hear,
They give me joy and cause no fear.
If I should step across this line
Will I be safe, will I be fine?
It's to a point that I don't care
It feels so good I can't despair.
If I worry anymore
I'm sure I'll end up on the floor.
I'm tired of sadness, grief and toil.
My head and heart start to boil.
I need this break just to get by
I am going take a chance with this guy.
Please let it be real and let it be true
But if it ends as a friendship, I'm happy too.

as long as one has the confidence and a couple sons to protect her...it is fun. I actually lucked out with an amazing artist who now encourages me to not be afraid of doing what I enjoy. Like you say "nothing ventured, nothing gained" Thanks for your comments

Hello Viginina, it would be nice to end in a friendship. If it does end with another date. Enjoy your day my friend.
