Walking Hand In Hand Poem by Kenny Mantinelli

Thinking once again,
Through my mind you roll;
Thinking about my life,
About how you make it whole.

Every day as I awake,
My mind is stuck on you;
And as I fall asleep,
My thoughts land on you.

This is the way it's been,
For the last six months;
And even at the very beginning,
I just had a hunch.

A hunch that you were special,
That you were just right;
A hunch that I needed you,
No matter who I'd have to fight.

And I have tried to fight for you,
Though you tell me not to;
So I listen to your words,
And I respect everything about you.

Heh.. Even before I met you,
I had dreams of beauty and perfection;
Perfection that was your beauty,
So I show you all of my affection.

Because days I wake up,
Are days you roll through my thoughts;
And days I go to sleep,
Are days I have not forgot.

Still here we are six months later,
Walking side by side in the sand;
Taking a step at a time,
Slowly walking hand in hand.
