i walked up to you

and took a deep breath

realizing now is the time

that i cannot let pass.

i told you the truth,

that i really like you…

and you replied,

i like you too.

I waited for the next question,

but it didn’t come.

Instead came the few words,

that tore apart my heart,

I’m not going to ask you out;

i don’t want to ruin our friendship.

My best friend told me

that this is good

i shouldn’t lose hope

but i should not ask why.

I waited a few weeks,

watching your every move

waiting for you to say something,

anything about me and you,

but it never came

and i just kept waiting…

only to find out that you like her too,

more than me, is what i was told.

I lost all my hope,

it came crashing onto me,

everything

just

stopped.

But this is my fairytale,

a happy ending will be there.

I walk onto the bus,

and i see you right there.

“What day do you like better?

Friday or Monday?”

Friday, of course is what i reply,

wondering why.

His best friend tells me

“Don’t be sick on Monday”

i got the hint.

You are asking me the question.

The one i have been waiting for,

this whole long while.

It was a long wait,

but very worthwhile.

But i only have one more thing

to say to him…

YES!
