What can I say, indubitably I did it; I even remember the very day. <br />After all the memorable moments, I blew a chance for love’s sway. <br />Times I’d visit him, after socializing in the pub; we’d have coffee. <br />Once while listening to classic music we even had some toffee. <br /> <br />Even after he and his friend chaperoned, I danced the night away. <br />Weeks later he talked of a new girl-friend, to saddening my fray. <br />Til then I hadn’t known what I felt; knowing how I’d miss our fun. <br />I’d sabotaged my chance for romance, with this perfect gentle one. <br /> <br />He had the perfect demeanour and caring ways with the such charm. <br />What I did was tell him only the bad and not’ of my heart, so warm. <br />And so he watched, I danced with every good looking guy in sight~! <br />Hoping he’d guess he was the-one or fooling myself for a bigger bite. <br /> <br />Hey, this Wild-Rose of destiny was running even from God, you see. <br />Never thought I’d inadvertently obstruct love, for fear’s reality. <br />I felt safe from love; fearing little and change wasn’t one of them. <br />Things for which we find of ourself are costly, within a fog so dim.<br /><br />ArmourQuill Hunter<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-scared-mr-perfect-away-2/
