Day 4: nervous hello...

Excited and nervous all at once
Afraid it won't be what it was once
Heightened and pulsing, every nerve on edge
Shortened and shallow, every difficult breath
The anticipation of those first words, knowing I'll have nothing to say...
knowing you'll try to talk the silence away.
I wish we could just let our bodies talk.
That I could whisper in kisses, and speak with a touch.
I'm no good at words!
Please promise me you won't make me speak.
But look long into my eyes and you'll hear what I say.
