First Contact

As shy as a hedgerow mouse
As timid as a bunny rabbit
I cannot seem to write a line
In this crazy mind that I inhabit

The poetry and prose I write
The verses and the rhymes
I still can’t send a contact message
To endear a woman’s charms

I’ve tried so many times so far
To make a good impression
But every time I write something
It leads me to depression

I never know just what to say
To start the conversation
Now I’m stuck inside my head
My thoughts are in stagnation

A single message I’ve not sent
No contacts have been made
I have no idea what to put
This could be a lost crusade

Hi Orpheus, loved the sentiment of this one....it is so hard to find the right words. thumbs up

Please, never confess that you're shy and timid, with crazy mind, etc. You are harming yourself by owning things that you actually do not possess. Judging from poems you write you know perfectly well what to say and how to make a move, just don't own things you have nothing to do with. Whatever you write in this poem creates a false impression about you, and my advice is - don't show this poem to any nice lady whose heart you want to win.
