A Fun Find

Today as I was organizing old documents, I came across this poem from when Rob and I were first dating. I like to think back on those times, my head spinning off my shoulders, feeling giddy and excited about every week-end and the new conversations we would have, his new qualities I would discover. And the best part-- I'm still discovering new things about him.

He’s awkward 
mumbles unclearly
I can’t catch it. 
We walk to the car
hand in hand.
“I like you...a lot” 
He spits out nervously. 
I smile. 
“And?” I ask
Knowing, waiting. 
Happy heart.
