I Love You

It’s been just week 
Already reasoning has a leak
Underneath this smile my defenses are getting weak
Should I pour caution down the sink 
And allow our hearts to speak?

Truth  be told I’m no adrenaline junky 
But I’m ready from these walls to jump and throw away the key 

To dive into the unknown 
Just knowing you got me
And in-turn from the same hymn book we sing 
Am I so naive to admit our hearts beat at the same wavelength?
The frequencies and all the technicalities are no longer 
A problem to worry  ourselves about ?
 
I know it’s been just a week 
But in  true honesty it’s been my best 
Am I too gullible to wish for more weeks like this 
Am I ?
