If I don’t ask how am I supposed to find out?
By osmosis?
If we don’t talk about it how can we come to an understanding?
Through telepathy?
We have fun.
We approach intimacy.
But somewhere there’s a barrier we’ll eventually have to storm.
I’m more than fond of you and I think you like me alright.
But I’m never sure and I’m afraid to ask.
I want to feel some certainty in the future.
You seem to be more concerned with now.
Now is great until it isn’t.
And how much present will the future allow?
That’s the barrier we’ll eventually have to storm.
