Not that I can't say or fess, I just can't tell it's affirmed. It may take me quite a while Before I can see the next scene. I could write a thousand words, But no sense, they're not all connected. I may have the script in my hands, I couldn't comprehend not a line. Twists & turns I can do, Yet no pirouette will I get to show. To find or to not find? That is the question. It's not in there, not in me; Only the pen can weave it. In the depths, beneath a rock, There goes my heart again. What do I feel, does it matter? Mustn't be the same, I can tell. Will it take me years or lifetime, Or will a period end it all? But who else can say, the director? Or him through the actor? What if both don't say the same line, Should I trust the provided manuscript? The apple of my eye is he, Stole my sweet smiles, touches, kisses & dreams. Though it wasn't all an act, Why would that actor lose me good? Not a poker face nor a trickster; How come he fits the scene so well? Here I am staring at your perfection, Now all annihilated, blind & muted. Then I have none else to say, But this is all but a monologue Of all I feel inside for the actor Who might give me a miscalculated scene. Though who's to say be blamed? Oh yes, it must be the writer. Hold on, the writer & actress are one entity, And that is all but me. So until then, my audience, I'll keep looking up to that actor. More songs, dances & acts will be made, And he'll be there behind the scenes.

Another of those times my crush inspires me to write.
