Disclosure
We had talked at length for hours, we had held hands
Sharing the innocent intimate touch that matters so very much
We had gone for a walk in the moonlight along the creekside park
Watching as the lights twinkled on the boats in the bay; it was pleasant together
in the late spring
We ended back at her place in a roundabout way, it wasn’t predicted, it just
happened like that
She asked me in for a coffee or two, the night was still young, what else could I do
She put the coffee on and sat down beside me, putting her hand on my leg
There is something I should tell you before we started just so you know from
where I have parted
Her eyes got real sad as she started to speak; I knew it was straight from the
heart
I took a deep breath and listened intently as she told of how her heart was once
broken
My late husband was a wonderful man, he was kind and gentle with a warm
loving touch
I miss him daily as he was my love
But you now come along as wonderful and kind in so many ways
If you are to love me and we make a new start
All that I ask is you be gentle with my heart
