#DAY 31

Hey babe,
I hope this words of mine
Won't give you fiery eyes.
If I'm below your type,
Please rebuff me with a little pity.

I have been a fan
For as long as I can remember
But, anytime I attempt to make moves
My heart fails me, my legs too,

Legs failed me today also,
But those staring comrades over there
Forced my legs into movement
When they pushed me towards you,

They, like myself
Will be disappointed if you,
The protagonist in my dreams
rejects me in reality.

I need not flatter you,
It would be pointless to call you
the fairest of them all when
There's actually none to compare with you.

If I ask you out,
Will you have mercy and give me a reply now?
My heart is too fragile to wait
For a day, let alone ages.
