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.

it is real and it began in a marvelous relationship and commitment 14 years ago. I am with an amazing artist (painting) and a very gentle , heart-warming man. Thanks for your comment and btw I've enjoyed so much more than I could have hoped for.
