Expectations

When I look out on the water I wish I was looking in your eyes
There’s a certain comfort in them I’d like to get to know.
And when you come to me I can feel the connection.
It blocks out the world that’s beating at the door.

I’m caught up in the newness of having you around
I find the separations become hard to endure.
I look forward to the time when I can hold you close.
And I can let the day pass on to history.

Reflecting as I always do,
Insecurities coming out.
As with everything there’s always “But”.

Where will we be when our expectations change?
Can we hold out and hold on?
Will it help to make us stronger?
Or will it all be gone?

I know, I know, slow down don’t look too far ahead.
Turn off those doubting voices for now.
But the future can be on us in no time at all.
And I’m looking towards it with you.

Reflecting as I always do,
Confidence coming out.
“But”, there it is again.

Where will we go when our directions turn?
We can turn them both together.
It will help to bring us closer,
Closer to being one.
