Brave enough

For tonight
Can we
Just wait and see
Not think too far ahead
Not worry on impossibilities
Ignore long-lived desire
instead soak in
the longings of our now
just consider How
and where and if and when
if even once
Just Once
we might yet meet again?
then after that
Just Once
Maybe we consider how
(& when & where)
a Next time
Might occur
And then again
And again…
but for tonight
would You let me in…
Be brave to just begin
With a maybe?
a coordinated When?
Can You Be brave enough
To converse?
I’m broken down
Late at night
In a dark cold basement
Awaiting your saving light…
So…
Maybe?
