Courting the desire
to slip on something new
a new day
a new thought
a new identity
a new way of being
a new me
a new you
Tantalizing possibilities
provoke action
interest builds
interest grows
interest blossoms
interest fosters action
a new you
a new me
Even if uncomfortable
that leap is tempting
expectations set
expectations defined
expectations expect
expectations linger
a new me
a new you
And then I realize,
I see…
love changes
love shifts
love renews
love is a living thing
between you
and me
Reigniting that desire
to hold on to the you
that makes me, me
