Holding Inside
by Renee Michelle Thompson

For a long time I had no reason to express the way I feel,
A year has passed, and I can't let go, the pain is still real.
I go to sleep at times, wondering who will be the love of my life,
Who will be waiting at the altar to let me be his wife.
Presently, someone has captured my heart, 
  but I refuse to let my guard down.
But I wonder, is this true love I have finally found?
I know it is too early to say, but I am too scared to find out.
It's just that I have been hurt before, so I have my doubts.
Though we have been friends for quite some time,
Something special I cherish, I just do not want to cross the line,
Risking our friendship, letting open the love door,
But my heart has been broken once, and it can't take hurt anymore.
In so many words, this someone special has been part of a dream,
Understanding, charming, respectful, or at least that's the way  
  he seems.
Trustin' him with my heart, mind, body and soul,
Now is the time, I assume, for these feelings to begin to unfold.
But I wonder, is the feeling mutual, or am I moving too fast?
I do not want to make a mistake, like reliving my past.
Distance may be a problem, but this is our last opportunity
To see if we have something special, to see if we are meant to be.
Here I stand, confused, yet ready to be a part of you,
Three Roses, Two Hearts, and One Love is that true...
