i’m shaking. can you see? can you tell?
i’m embarrassed. never done this before. oh hell
why am i so frightened? you’re just a girl
and i’m just a guy who’ll promise to give you the world…
i’m hot. can you see? am i red?
my palms are sweaty. heat rising to my head.
i must look like a fool. approaching you.
some guy come to talk out of the blue…
should i turn around? head for home? no.
i’ve come this far. not the time to go.
time to look straight at your eyes. intense brown.
weakness in my legs. no - don’t fall down!
coming closer. eyes only on you. blood beating.
you look back at me. heart pounding. deep breathing.
your face. your hair. your lips. your smile…
my time has come. no waiting another while.
i open my mouth… hello…
