Together

What if we
danced forever?
I'll lead,
you follow.

What if we stayed up
all night?
Taking about movies
and jello.

Would you be
happy?
The tears on your face
say "no."

Have you laughed
this week?
Looks like it hurts
to swallow.

Is this a week
to remember?
Goes by fast
yet so slow.

But what if we
kissed?
Would that break your rule?
I want us to grow.

When will things get
rocky?
Our love is something
I want to flow.

What if you
were scared?
I would hold you
and never let go.

I like reading rhyming poems since I write freeverse so much. My favorite lines:

"What if we
danced forever?
I'll lead,
you follow."

It seems as if this poem is about someone who is thinking about entering a relationship... but that's just my opinion. (Or someone who's already in a relationship but wants it to grow.) Is that what you're trying to convey?

But again, I do like the format. Question? Answer.
