Do You... Poem by Tim Romines

When you sleep do your dreams lead to me?
Do those dreams make you happy or sad?
When you wake does your arm reach out as if to find me?
When you feel nothing does your heart feel the same?
When you walk alone does your hand reach for mine?
When your eyes open do you look for me?
When you don’t see me do you miss me?
When you get upset do you wish I was there?
When you’re excited am I the first to know?
When you can’t find me do you look?
Do your eyes light up when you see I have called?
Do you anticipate what I might have left for you when you wake up?
When you go out to eat do you see me across from you?
When you need to talk am I who you call?
When you need a helping hand do you call me?
If you are having a bad day am I the one who makes it good?
If you are ever lonely am I amble to take that away?
When you curl up in bed does the pillow become me?
When you hear a special song do you think about me?
When you think of loving someone do you think of me?

Give this to someone that you care about so deeply words can’t explain and see if they respond to you. These are just some of the things that I think make up a loving bond and relationship. I have been very close to having this and I know that it is out there for me one day I just have to be very patient and she will find me and hopefully hand this back to me filled out with only one phrase at the end:
“Yes and I love you very much”
Remember yours might be a long wait, just around the corner or even right in front of you so don’t be scared if you feel it at all try it.
