Plucking up the courage
to hold her hand,
a voice inside tells you
she will understand.
Slowly you move to
within touching distance
while watching out for
any sign of resistance.
Softly you lay
your hand on hers
and then wait nervously
to see what occurs.
She intertwines her fingers
between yours
then she turns her head to whisper
those three little words
you’ve been longing to hear
and when she does
you put your arms around her
to pull her near.

Congratulations on 500th post 🙌❤️
