NO INTENTIONS

I HAD NO INTENTIONS OF FALLING IN LOVE,
I'D BEEN THERE BEFORE AND KNEW WHAT IT WAS.
ALL I WANTED WAS AN EMAIL PAL,
NOTHING SERIOUS, JUST A FRIENDLY GAL.
ONE I COULD TALK TO AND DISCUSS MY PLANS
ABOUT EVERYDAY PROBLEMS AND ITS DEMANDS.
TELLING EACH OTHER ABOUT FAMILY CONCERNS,
OR WHAT KIND OF WOOD YOUR FIREPLACE BURNS.
WHAT WAS THE MOVIE LAST NIGHT YOUR KIDS SAW,
AND HOW WAS YOUR VISIT WITH YOUR EX-MOTHER IN LAW?
THESE EVERY DAY THINGS ARE HOW WE MUST LIVE,
ABLE TO IGNORE THINGS AND LEARN TO FORGIVE.
NEVER REALIZING WHAT IS HAPPENING - EVER-SO-SLY,
BUT CERTAIN FEELINGS HAVE ME WONDERING WHY.
WHY? WHY AM I AT THE COMPUTER EXPECTING A WORD,
WANTING TO KNOW WHAT SHE HAS HEARD.
AND IF I DON'T HEAR,I START TO WORRY,
I AM SO EAGER-I WANT HER TO HURRY!
ARE THESE INDICATIIONS I'M BEGINNING TO FALL?
AS I STATED ,I HAVE NO INTENTIONS, NONE AT ALL.
I HAVE MY GUARD UP, AND I'M READY TO FIGHT,
I WON'T SUCCUMB TO THIS CREEPING PLIGHT.
THEN - THEN I LEARN SHE TOO, IS AFFECTED -
THAT, IS SOMETHING I HAD NEVER SUSPECTED !
UNTIL I RECEIVED A LETTER SAYING,"I LOVE YOU",
I AM SO RELIEVED, BECAUSE I FEEL THAT WAY TOO.
