We’re both shy but
Emboldened to try
Will you come to me
Across the distance
Far beyond reasons’
Reach for me asking?
I just need to know
Give me permission
I’ve come to my edge
To bridge this chasm
As staring at you from
My side’s insecurities
Unsure if my instincts
Have guided correctly
Your words internalized
Electricity to my wiring
Circuit breakers flipping
From response’s surging
Awakened in readiness
God how we’ve waited!
But worried cautious as
Never been here before
Knowing our timing is right
Yet having not experienced
Communion’s resurrection
Tell me how to meet you
Oh there’s only so much
I can overextend to you
Witness my hesitance
Grip in self-protection
Because I need certainty
You’ll call my heart home
