“Building” Relationship

A sight from a distance -- he’s attractive;
Plans in my mind are made.
Eye contact and a friendly chat;
The foundation has been laid.

We walk, we talk about where we grew up;
Framework is starting to form.
We insulate with talk of family;
HIs smile is friendly and warm.

Secrets revealed and like a roof o’erhead,
I feel protected when he is near.
The walls are up, but doors open wide;
I let him in without any fear.

Carpet is laid and painted walls;
I want to look good for him every day.
Furniture posed, we settle down,
In this home forever we’ll stay.
