*HUGS*

oh...a poem for you. :)

It occurs to me right now,
Right now as you sit there.
That your are reading,
A bit of me.

Wow.
I have to pause in wonder
That you are sitting there
Reading what I wrote
As I sit here and write.
I wonder.

Will you like what you read?
And does it matter?
If you do not like what you read
Does it mean
That you do not like me?

And does it matter?

Only that you read should count
That you read a part of me
Not my soul in this poem
But my wonder

Ah, as you sit and read my wonder
Do you wish you had
A bit of my soul?

Did you expect blood in this poem?
Tears and guts wrenched from my being?

Does it matter then?
That you only had wonder?

As I sit and wonder,
Does it matter?
