As the Cloud Floats on the Wind

In Love

If it’s for the first time
you are unsure of what you will experience
which perhaps is best
(just in case it doesn’t work out the way you expected)

If it’s not the first time
you would think it would be better
because at least you’d know
about the pitfalls in advance
and be able to prepare yourself for them

Which is best -
the first time
or this time

I think this time
because in between the first time and this time
usually comes experience
and an understanding
of the beauty of a loving relationship

And because of the experience
you can overcome and avoid at least some of the pitfalls.

It isn’t easy, no relationship ever is.

But being able to go to bed next to the one you love
And going to sleep in their arms
Is always worth it…
