You make me wonder
if there is posibility
even with all the failure
that exists behind me
how unexpected you are
a surprise
to one who drifted
deep into the pit of doubt
you see I keep expecting
something to happen
as it has so often before
to end things before they begin
for you to disappear
for me to disappoint
I can not explain
how it is I feel
or why
for somehow
this is not the same
as it has been before
if I hope
will it be crushed once more
we have not met
yet I feel
something
I dare not wish for too much
knowing what can happen
not wanting to hurt
or to be hurt
I wonder
if you will be glad
for knowing me
