What The Future Holds?
Will it be the same when we are old?
Will we still want each other to hold?
Will your touch still give me a tingle?
Or, will we wish that we were single?
Will I still do all to keep you happy?
Will you respond with something sappy?
Will we both still love ‘sweet nothings.’?
Or, will we be fighting and cussing?
Will I take you to your favorite spots?
Will you say, for me, you have the ‘hots’?
Will I still turn you on at night in bed?
Or, will you be sorry we ever wed?
Will you still meet me at the door?
Will you talk of your day & more?
Will we share the same interests?
Or, will we wish for another entrance?
Will we always put each other first?
Will we think our life is a curse?
Will you still love me when I’m 64?
Or, will you throw me out the door?
The answers to these I do not know.
I just know it is worth a go.
The answers may be yes or may be no.
As for me , I’d rather not know.—————-R. W. Johnson—–(2014)
