Flutter

In the tapestry woven through laughter and time,

A friendship so rich, like a soft, soothing rhyme.

Years have unfurled like pages in flight,

Yet here in my heart, your spark shines so bright.

We've danced through the seasons, both joy and despair,

Building a bond that's beyond compare.

But now there's a flutter, a twist in the air,

A feeling that lingers, a pulse that we share.

Your smile is a secret that ignites a sweet flame,

A warmth in my chest with your whispering name.

In moments unguarded, I catch a glimpse clear,

Of something much deeper than friendship held dear.

I cherish the memories, the way that you laugh,

In the quietest moments, I long for your hand.

Though fear tugs at my heart, making me pause,

What if this affection is something we cause?

Yet still, every day, I marvel anew,

At the magic in knowing, in loving you too.

So I’ll dance with this feeling, let it blossom and grow,

For in the garden of friendship, true love may yet show.
