Take control.

dianejean57

Free verse
Take control.

I'm walking down the street, and I see someone I would like to meet. He is so fine, and he is so kind. Sometimes you have to take control. I walked up to him and told him my name is, so how do you do? I took his hand. Oh,  what a man! We walked, talked, and held each other tight. That night. I asked him what he thought this might be, and he said I'd have to wait and see. Sometimes you have to take his hand to make him understand.

    Seems like you took the reins and made a bold move! Walking up to someone you're drawn to and initiating a conversation can lead to unexpected connections and meaningful moments. The spontaneity and courage in taking control of the situation can open doors to new experiences and possibilities. It's all about seizing the moment and seeing where it takes you. Who knows, this encounter might just be the start of something special!
