I’m a high school senior and I like this girl which until recently was outta limits. I’ve already decided that I’m gonna make a move and it’s going to involve what else but LOVE POETRY?!! so nobody’s going to dissuade me (convince me not to) do this. I just wanna know what a bunch of random strangers think about this wonderful pearl I just pulled out of my… hat.

It’s hard to say in words
what I’m feeling to this day.
I try to open my mouth
but suddenly become afraid.
I know there is no future,
no purpose for this note.
This rose will go to waste,
I live with only hope.
Whether it lives or it dies,
I will walk out okay.

This rose grew from my heart,
at first a heavy burden.
I refused to believe,
I used to deny,
but now I can no longer hide this deep secret.

I have left the safety of my shell,
which did well to me.
Now I’m taking a chance.
Will I fall or will I fly?
It sounds improbable,
almost too obvious.
How can I fly when I have no wings?
But it’s a simple question,
with a simple answer.
was I tricked by my heart?
will I drown in the truth?
or will I take sudden flight,
in the skies, the deep blue?
if I am the fish,
you the ocean.
if I am the star,
you are the heavens.
if I were to tell you, who would believe
that Old Cupid’s arrow
has made a slave out of me?
btw, 99.8% chance she doesn’t like me. 89% chance that she doesn’t even care who I am. but the feeling inside is too hard to keep inside. I have to tell her no matter what. That’s stupid, but that’s love.
wow. thanks for the responses. I can understand some of the constructive criticisms but I’ll take my chances anyway. I’ve already stalled this for TOO long, I need to do this now or never.
