Getting To Know You

I don't mean to complicate your life
but some things I need to say and 
you need to hear

I didn't know what I wanted from us until
I became unwilling to let us become
another missed opportunity, because I failed to express...

Never finding the happiness I deserved,
not fully aware of what I really wanted,
and then came you.

Women are not objects or possessions...
Warm, loving creations wanting commitment
Caring, sweet, lovely creations of pure unconditional love...
If we let them...

What does life hold...
Neither of us can be sure,
but we must accept the present
so we may understand the future.

I thought the deeper meaning of these words
is the very foundation on which we stand,
as we travel together through the excitement
of our picturesque journey.

"Dedicated to Andrea"
Floyd - your friend for life!!
