The Meekest Love Story

Based on a true story

The Meekest Love Story

 

Your friends told me; you liked me

Even though I never laid my eyes on you

So I searched the crowd out of curiosity

There, I found all about you

 

One day we finally became friends

Your friendship was warm as if holding hands

So I waited in case you tried

Telling me sweet words with pride

 

Another day came, no sweet talk

Ever was spoken between us

Not even a happy walk

With you ever passed!

 

Was I only an assuming fool?

Believing rumors and nonsense?

Was I only a tool

For fun and random chance?

 

I decided to go away

To protect my foolish heart

Forgot all about that happy day

Even if it hurts to part

 

But fate must be very ironic

One rainy day, I was very sick

So I stayed quiet and meek

Sitting rigidly like a stick

 

Then you came to me

Asking if I was okay

I only nodded out of courtesy

But you stayed anyway

 

Then you spoke of your joy in the past

About whom your fate is tied

To a girl who let your joy last

But she ignored you thus your joy died

 

“That girl was you”, you told me

With those warm eyes pleading

I was caught off guard, you see!

From a confession I stopped from expecting

 

Here you are gathering all the courage

To ask me for love, is it not?

I was then so outraged

My heart and insides were all in knots!

 

I hated the way you shy away

Leaving me always in dismay

Afraid of imperfection, you say?

Imperfection I fell for everyday!

 

When will you be brave and proud

For such feelings of warm love?

Please tell me very loud

About your love as free as a dove

 

Do not hesitate again--that’s what I like

And I shall do the same

Do not wait before it’s too late

Just tell me with no shame

 

“I like you” he said.

And forever I won’t be gray

“I love you” he said

And forever I will stay

 

Author's Note

I hope I still did this one right! XD
Based on a real story. I so want to give this to the guy but oh well... he as oblivious and as shy and as meek as ever--but that's why she loves him, anyway.

I really loved this poem. Towards the end it kind of gives a sigh of relief whenever he reveals that he loved that day and wanted to be with her. From the beginning you were hoping it would work out and had that anticipation. Thanks for sharing
