The new racism employed by people in these situations is disgusting and seems to be widely accepted in the public space.

Regularly I'm a master of oration,
But when it comes to
Deep feelings of affection
can't I just bury my head
and hand her a poem instead?

I need to change the way I live, for I am desperately unhappy. But change is something I fear more than anything. What if it doesn't fix me?

You fear she won't feel the same way and then you dispel all doubt as the self-realisation, you simply aren't good enough for her, manifests

Some people have a phobia of clowns, but I just have a fear that one specific clown with a beautiful smile doesn't feel how I feel about her

I finally send the message and now I wait.
Every second is agony and I could drown in the silence,
Just like I drown in your eyes every time
