Not a huge "sharer" but I'm inspired to toss this up since my writing has come up a few times lately all around the web. This is pretty old, like, years ago old, but it's one of my favorites.
I ready myself for the moment of truth,
Put my heart and soul in your hands;
My life is flashing before my eyes,
Like wind through desert sands.
The times we've had, the times to come,
I pray will last till death;
I feel as though you are the reason,
I continue to draw breath.
I lower to my knee slowly,
My heart beats like a drum;
My hands are sweating, mind is racing,
My legs are growing numb.
You open your eyes as though you know,
What I'm about to say;
The time is here, the time is now,
I've waited for this day.
I pull out the ring and watch your eyes,
Breathing slow and deep;
I sit and wait on your response,
Hoping you're mine to keep.
