Mmmm you're so nice ........
Draped half naked on the swimming pool steps, cigarette in hand. I'm thinking you're so young and fit it doesn't even occur to you that swimming and smoking are a little counter-productive.
You tell me I'm beautiful, I've heard it so many times before, yet this time it sounds like a different language you're speaking. I want to see your face so I can return the compliment.
Like the perfect beau you don't keep me waiting, you're here for me at my request, photo at the ready. I drink in your eyes and lips, those features that tell me if there will be a spark and I catch afire.
Sweet, sweet man of my dreams, you say all the right things. You're not trying to win me over with anything other than your natural charm. I've been here long enough to know when someone's just paying lip service.
Yet my heart won't let me believe a word you say, except that the weather's great or you laughed at my joke or how you had a bad day at work. My heart doesn't want to hear you tell me this could be more than two people chatting on line. My head joins in two - this is just another one of those things - stay with it while it lasts, then let it go.
What really breaks my heart is I want to believe you, I really do, but when we've been burned the scars get in the way and it's so much easier to be cynical than trusting.
How I miss the woman I used to be. She would have been so excited by you, so full of hope. There were no boundaries to the possibilities for her. Age, distance, time, money, nothing was going to stand in the way of her and true love.
She's not quite dead yet but the essence of her is gone. So sad, my sweet young thing you have to prove yourself now. Like a jousting Knight your prize awaits but will you be wounded along the way?
The dreamer in me remains and in my minds eye I see us drifting away together on a sea of passion and contentment. If you win me, will I get the prize too or will you jump ship and swim with the mermaids, leaving me stranded on board?
Baby I don't know, but I'm hoping it will be fun finding out. I'll never hurt you, I hope you're for real.
