Timing

Walking you back
To your cabin,
You said that I
Could not come
In and I agreed.
Holding the door
Open for you,
how did I dare
To enter?
You accepted me
As I was. And we
Spent the rest of
Our days onboard
together.
Trust is hard to nurture
But once in place
It is for us
irrevocable.
We are safe from
Betrayal or
Abandonment
By the other.
Honesty is our
Best ally.
