Blooming from Fear
In the depths of my heart, a yearning resides, A desire to ask her out, to let my affection rise. But fear clutches tightly, a serpent so sly, Whispering doubts and worries, making my spirit sigh.
Oh, the thought of approaching her, a goddess so fair, My palms grow clammy, my voice lost in the air. Her smile, a radiant sunbeam, her laughter, a sweet song, Yet my words get tangled, my courage gone.
I replay each scenario, every possible line, Desperate to make it perfect, for my heart to entwine. What if she rejects me, her response cold as ice? My confidence shattered, my spirit reduced to dice.
But then I envision her eyes, sparkling like stars, Her gentle smile, her laughter, erasing my scars. The thought of her happiness, a beacon so bright, Warms my heart and chases away the lingering fright.
I gather my courage, a warrior's embrace, Ready to face the unknown, to seek her sweet grace. With trembling hands, I approach her divine form, My heart pounding like drums, ready to weather the storm.
"May I have the pleasure of your company, my dear?" The words escape my lips, a whisper so near. Her eyes meet mine, a twinkle of delight, Her smile blossoms, casting my fears into the night.
"Yes, I would love to," her voice like a chime, A melody of acceptance, erasing the grime. Relief washes over me, a wave of pure bliss, As we embark on a journey, a shared, loving abyss.
The anxiety fades, replaced by joy's embrace, As we converse and connect, in this newfound space. Her laughter echoes, a symphony so sweet, My heart takes flight, soaring on wings so fleet.
No longer afraid, no longer in doubt, For I've taken the plunge, my fears cast out. In the depths of my heart, a love will reside, A love that blossomed from courage, a love that won't hide.
