Forsaken

I wanted to watch you

My eyes were shy

I wanted to kiss you

My lips were dry

I wanted to hold you

My arms were weak

I wanted to tell you

I could not speak

I wanted to love you

Just never found the voice

I wanted to be with you

Just never made that choice

Notes: Some of us, in our youth, admired another from afar. Overwhelmed by our emotions we froze and were unable to take any action at all. Forsaking for ever the never knowing of rejection or acceptance.
