steve:

we all are a contrast of contradictions, such as
i'm shy in groups but assertive in interment surroundings.
i just met a man, refreshingly modest but more aggressive;
so far the characteristics i see are close to that to men i've loved.
i could loose myself in a life of service.
not slavery, but rather appreciatory doing.
i imagine and chat with him about manicures, pedicures, hair cuts,
shiatsu massages even ritual green tea ceremonies and i stir.
then there are other more private things we discuss that makes me feel
there's trust, reliance, some respect.
don't get me wrong he's not a raving beauty, just an average man.
it's his chi, his most primal energy that stir me.
his smile, bright eyes, his generosity and more.
could he be my man? would he be the one?
so, i'll step up and venture down loves shaded path in my autumn hours.
as in all things time will tell.
