The Hand I Never Took

Standing there staring

At our feet on the ground 

Wishing, no, dreaming

I could be only a bit more daring

With a swift move I grab your hand

Tangling our fingers as you stare back at me

With your starry eyes

Leaving me breathless

I'm nowhere but I'm everywhere

Nothing else matters

Accept you and me

Your touch, your soft hands

So warm and delicate

Like holding a baby bird

But the grip you have on my hand

Says everything

That you could lead an entire nation

Everything about you is amazing

Maybe, just maybe this could mean more?

Could this mean the start of a beautiful relationship?or could this simply be the act of living in the moment?

I open my eyes

Still several feet away

Staring at our feet 

And then at your hand

The hand i never took
