New Love

New Love

I want to escape
So I run from you.
Why?
When I should be running to you!
What am I afraid of?
Perhaps it's just I wasn't 
Expecting this.
It's so strange
It's not what I'd planned.
But it's rare
When life goes
According to plan.
I've fallen in love with you.
And I think you love me, too.
But this lack of communication
Between us
Leads me to wonder.
What's going on inside of you?

(November 14, 1998)

Just so you know, this poem is about my husband.  
It has to be because it was written the night we went on our first date.
How cute.
