Afraid

Afraid

To ask her for a date

Afraid that she might say ~ Yes!

If she does, what will I do,
where will we go ~

I am so shy, that perhaps I’ll melt

A quiet dinner, a night out

For if she does, I’ll want to shout

I wish we could dance the whole night thru

Perhaps, we’d walk or talk and fill a book

Oh! Please don’t give me that loving look

For if you do, I know I’ll care and I will fall in love with you

Oh! She has such loving eyes with ravishing lips that want to be kissed

My poor heart just skipped & missed a beat

Just to be with her is such a special treat

The night is over, the date is too

I wonder if I should softly kiss her lips
the way I want to do ~

I am not brave enough to ask her for another date

Do you think she wants me to

~ would you ~

JimEee ~

If you don't ask ~ you'll never know.

If you're not happy with your life as it is ~ do what you need to do to change it!

Best of luck.

JimEee, JimEee, JimEee. Where have I gone wrong with
you? Send the maiden to my chambers. I will send her
back to you, let's say, more worthy. grin
Just kidding bro. Sometimes you just gotta take the bull
by the horns.

Mady, Tis true, no would know the answer if they didn't ask ~

But if it's the wrong reply ~ does one really want to know ~

For what if you were the person & said no to me ~

Dreams are the illusions of the heart, so why kill your dreams ~

Perhaps I am your illusion or you are mine, stranger things

have happened here on earth ~ Lol

Thanks for you thoughtful comments ~

Oh! The pain of rejection is so unbearable ~

And the dreams of acceptance so wonderful

SM, if I could only ask any women for a date ~

But alas I have not the courage

Lol

It's Martina my friend from Ireland
I bet all the Elves and Leprechauns
in Ireland are asking you for a date ~ Lol

I would be at the head of the line ~
but I am too afraid ~ Lol

Glad you enjoyed the poem!

I see that you are a woman that is searching
for the adventures of the future
& the forgetting of the past ~

May my crystal ball foretell, much happiness
for you ~

Thank you for stopping by and commenting!

These romantic poets here are not dare devils.....they need to take that step of courage...what are they waiting for.....not enough $$ to travel....rejection ...... insecurity......Come on happiness does not knock on your door many times....I once took the risk to move to OHIO in 2009, from someone here in CS. Did not work but don't regret it...one more experience so you guys go for it...!!!!

Jim ~ It appears that the CS Ladies are far more adventurous than some of the males on this site....
lol applause

As enjoyable as those dreams and illusions are ~ they are nothing in comparison to the real thing ~ in the real world. grin

If she said no ~ just 'pretend' it didn't happen and dream on! frustrated doh

But Oh JimEee ~ if she said yes ~ think of the joy it would bring into your life ~ into your world.

Perhaps you are right ~ would not it be stranger than life if we were were indeed ~ each the illusion of the other....lol!!?? wow blushing

OMG....Kathy & Laura & SM & Martina & a dozen others would probably have me destroyed!

...and poor Cafe ~ he would have an attack of some sort ~ realizing he had lost one of his maidens to you...lol very mad

nice poetry and beautiful poem of love

Think of how much you'll regret it if you don't. If she refuses, it's over. If you don't ask, it will never be over. And you never know. . .

Tis a stretch of the imagination to think
that she could care ~

But if she did ~ just think of her
awaiting lips of passion to share ~

Oh such lips of honey nectar
that could be mine!

That you for your comments

Oh! The thoughts of her is overwhelming ~

Regrettably that I didn't ask her is true

Oh! If only I could ~ would you have?

The thoughts are unbearable that she might have liked me too ~

I ponder your message, thanks for writing
