the most wonderful 2 days in my life...

Most of you know I write alot of poetry and post it here.

Some of you know that those poems were about one particular young lady I am quite fond of.

Her name is Kelly. I have known her for a very long time, but only recently had I developed a romantic affection toward her. But I felt, as you can probably see by these poems, that it was only one way, she felt nothing for me.

Well, the past 2 days we..Kelly and I...have spent together

At first it was just me..writing her emails, and every now and then I would get a response. I asked her out alot, but she either ignored me, or was busy, or would agree to and then change plans at the last minute. It was killing me.

But now, when I got out of the hospital, I can't get her to leave me alone!! She calls every day and we talk for hours. She comes over around noon and stays until 8 or 9 pm! We take our dogs for walks, we went shopping together, went out to dinner, just drove around and talked, etc...

She brought in some of her old pictures of when she was pregnant, her daughter, her family, etc.. She moved over to the love seat and snuggled right up against me and for the next hour just showed me all of these pictures, telling me all about them...every now and then turning and looking at me with those big, beautiful eyes and that bright smile of hers. I can feel her lean up against me still...her warmth, her happiness...

When she leaves she hold me so tight, as I do her. I hear her whisper how much she missed me (we used to work together...this is the first time we have seen each other in person for almost a year).

I don't know where this will lead...but I like where it is going. She tells me she is going to keep me busy while I am off from work recovering. We also have plans to get together later today.

One thing is for sure, none of this would ever have happened if I had just given up. If I had let my fear control me, I would not have gone out with her on Monday. I was afraid. I was afraid I would screw it up...and I almost cancelled our date. But i stuck with it. I swallowed my fear and went through with it.

Sometimes, when you think you are not going to make it, when you are going to fail...if you can just hold on for 1 more day life can change!

Thanks for reading

Good for you! I really hope this works out for you.

Cool! It's really good to hear that. =) I wish you all the best.
It's always good to try hard afterall. =)

That's great Grundel! It's good proof for when someone feels like giving up that we never know when something positive is right around the corner. I hope it continues to go well for you!

You really deserve it Congradulations and I hope it all works out for you.

That's really great, Grundel. It makes me happy to see you growing close to someone finally, especially after such a trying event! Not only do you deserve it, but I think it's also testament that the ideas and philosophies you've preached on this forum can work for people if we put them in to practice.

So here's hoping for continued success and a wonderful relationship

Yay I'm truly happy for you. I have always believed that eventually things work themselves out. I'm so glad it's working out for you now. <3

Oh, wow! I'm really happy for you. It sounds like she means a lot to you,
