I met a man today.
He took my breath away.
He whispered sweetness in my ear
joyous words that I could hear
and with the voice , I could see clear
the emptiness that left me bare.
He touched me though, with such delight
and chased away my fear and fright
and gave me hope to love tonight...
...
but then I remember
the pain last November.
The betrayal in my wake
the brutality I take
Do I make the same mistake?
...
I met a man today.
He took my breath away.
I wanted to confide in him
the pain that I display.
But past ghosts haunt
and past loves taunt.
Do I trust him?
Do I not?
