Road with You

I met a guy last Sunday and I think I like him. I told him that because I promise to myself that I will never complicate things and that when I fall in love again, I will make sure that "that-special-someone" will know of it. I already learned my lesson. I have been single for ages and I think I am ready to fall in love again. I thought of creating a poem for him. Here it is!

Road with You

Everyday, I walk on the same road
I see same faces, same houses
Same trees, same fences
I have been walking in that same road for four years
Longing to see any difference.

Don't get me wrong because it's my comfort zone
But sometimes same comfort  for the long time is stagnation
It bores me, I want to explore more roads
A little mudy and rough, maybe more toads.

I have been in the same road for years, back and forth
At first it is fine, but then I discovered
A road traveled with someone is less tiring
That's when I met you.

You talk about almost everything
And I am just listening
I am interested in your stories
So please keep on telling them.

You told me about your experiences
How you spend your weekends
How you even met your friends
And from that moment, I know
I want you to be my "special" friend.

I told you I like you
Because I don't want to lose you
I took the chance because it is a lesson from my past too.
You said,you want to walk with me
I just hope it is true.

I would be honest. It relieves me
Because for the past days,
I have been overthinking about it
"Why he is not reponding?
Is he still interested? or Does he want to part ways that early."

No matter what, I am still here
Text me when you're not busy
I will be glad to walk the same road with you
And perhaps I'll take another route just to be with you.

I don't know where the road will lead us
I am afraid to risk again but I am ready.

Am I not gambling everything, if I will not try?
I can't afford to have another regret
thinking what if I tried...
