#FWF Free Write Friday: The Perks of Being a Wallflower

I have an infinite love for him

I know that it is surely slim

That he would ever see

How much he means to me

Watching through the window pane

As he went and came

Wanting to tell him so

My love for him does grow

Inability to speak

When ever we do meet

Keeping emotions in a cage

Fighting back tears and rage

I should walk over there

And tell him that I care

Will he see it in my eyes

The answers and the whys

Time is ticking quickly by

No more questions why

I will walk over to his door

Profess my love for ever more

He opens the door and looks at me

Invites me in with a smile I see

He asks me why I’ve waited so long

He has also wanted me all along.

Love how the words first scream of hesitation, and then that simple aspect of putting of one foot in front of the other to go find out. So many people fail to find out and miss that infinite moment, but your words found theirs.
