And if I watch you, maybe you will notice
Feel the weight of my stare and turn
And maybe you will smile and recognise something
Unspoken and unnamed
And if I kiss you, maybe you will kiss me back
Graze me with your hard fingers and soft tongue
Trace me in morning sunlight and evening moonlight
Blurred edges defined beneath your hands
And if I love you, maybe you will love me too
We will wrap each other in warmth and contentment
Give up a piece of ourselves to gain something whole
Something beautiful
And yes if we fight, maybe we will hurt
If we forget to be careful
Get too complacent
Maybe we will know pain
I don’t have all the answers
But if all my maybes, with all their chances
And all of yours with all their unknowns
Brought us to here
Brought us to now
Then maybe, just maybe, it’s worth it
