When Will I Tell You?
It’s so strange how the mysteries decide to open your eyes to things, things that once your eyes are open, are so clear, so clean, so obvious! It’s all in the timing a lover once told me years ago, and I have found it’s so very true.
As you read this, you may be wondering why would someone risk a friendship, contemplate changing it into something romantic? Life is too short not to take risks! And if it’s a true friendship, it will remain regardless of whether those other sparks actually ignite or not. :o)
Carpe Diem!!!!!!
You’ve been right here all this time,
right under my nose.
A dear, sweet friend,
We see the world through similar eyes,
a man after my own heart.
Our passions are shared,
music and peace,
love of man and beasts,
a sunset, a mountain,
a sweet little hummingbird.
The fresh, clean air that we live in.
Why I never saw you before,
in this way I’ll never know.
It’s sweet, and easy,
warm and light.
Full of laughter and silliness.
I want to tell you,
I will tell you.
You’re my friend,
all I have to do is talk!
I can see that twinkle in your blue eyes,
feel the regard and warmth in your hugs.
Waiting to find the right time,
the time to turn that warmth and twinkle into sparks!
When will I tell you?
Maybe tonight?
Maybe next week?
Soon.
I’ll know when it’s right.

How’s the second (or is the third or fourth?) day of the rest of your life?! Hope the sense of freedom is overpowering the freak out of being out of work. :o)

Very nice Jen. . . Do it now! Don’t wait. . .
JenLand replied
Thanks Hugh! The stars and the planets need to be right, ya know? :o)

I believe that a friend that becomes a lover will always remain a friend. That has been my experience anyway. I’ve always tried to be friends before being lovers. Re the planets and stars being right, any competent astrologer can tell you exactly what you want to hear and illustrate it with descriptions of planetary positions and relationships. . . I used to have a friend who taught astrology. . .

Really well said. Supposedly, the best romantic relationships are born from friendships so…..if the timing is right and you believe it is mutual, go for it.
JenLand replied
It would be a first for me, to have the friendship first. Maybe it will last this time?! heh heh :o) Thanks for the moral support!
