Jrock

Before I went to Lake Powell I had a feeling I was going to meet someone very special, I know that sounds crazy, but its true. I think, or like to think, that intuition is one of my strengths. It has been since i was little.

I always think of this quote when I meet knew people:
"Some people walk into our lives and quickly go.
Some stay for a while and leave foot prints on our hearts,
and we are never the same."

It is too soon to tell what kind of person Josh will be....
Will he quickly go?
Will he stay?
Will he change my life in a way that I will never be the same?
I don't know...and usually that would scare me, usually I would push him away, but this time I am just going to let the pieces fall where they may.

Everyday

Going and going
Not really knowing

Step

Never seeing
Only speaking

Think

Without feeling
Just holding

Take

Keeping and leaving
Never needing

End

When

My heart is racing
But my mind is slow
I wonder how long it will be before i know

Where to look
And how to find
Maybe ill take a walk tonight

I see
I feel
I hear
I touch

Isn't that enough?
