One Step Back, Two Steps Forward

us

We were like two intertwining souls,
Unsure.

We were like two young hearts,
Foolish.

Always moving.

We were flowing with the tide,
Not completely against the current.

We were near impossible,
Energies coinciding.

She didn't know how to hold him,
Only to lose touch.

He didn't know what he wanted,
Only to choose what seemed right.

Complementing each other.

For her to feel worthy of his company.

And her, to share her exuberance,
To fill the gaps between what he feels amiss.
