What Does Hot Mean To Me
What could make me live with fulfillment,
and die a happy man?
Build a bridge with an unbreakable span.
The answer must lie with wanting only one ride.
Not jumping from horse to horse, whichever one
happened to be by my side.
Only through enough time together can a connection be made.
So the next move can be felt not bade.
So close we can communicate just by our presence.
This would foster hope and peace,
now sorely lacking.
Opportunity granted perhaps only once in a lifetime,
for this to come true.
Making her my one and only pledged true blue.
My gut tells me, to have a chance with her,
I have to toe the line.
If I ever want this woman to be totally mine.
Only then when my behavior is free of rust.
Can the last letter of my dream happen,
Gaining her trust.
Once that hurdle is reached and cleared,
Together we can build whatever we want, free of fear.
On that day, as now, when writing words so clear,
The thought of it happening produces a tear.
