If I told you that I loved you,
You’d probably start to cry,
If I told you that I needed you,
You’d think it was a lie,
I’ll just go on dreaming,
Until the day I try,
To tell you how much I love you,
And explain the reasons why.

So gently vulnerable. Today’s the day to say it!😊.
Omg,.. I forgot to say: Congratulations, Sir! For crossing 100 stories... All of them are worth reading, I swear. Let me tell you a few things I especially adore about your writing: Firstly, I never get bored! Said it a thousand times... You have this magnetic field that keeps the current flowing without stopping. Secondly, Can you tell me how you gather so much knowledge? Spiders, Kangaroos, Dogs(pretty obvious), Fame? And then put the mix of Reality and Humor to make it just Perfect! 🔥 Lastly, Keep driving this awesome car of your life. I'm loving it. Not just me... Everyone here loves what you're doing. ✨😊
I like how this poem captures the vulnerability and hesitation of expressing deep feelings!
This was so heartwarming. It’s so relatable too, if only things weren’t this complicated. But I love the realness it holds, the connection hanging in the air, the loving secret kept gently in the heart. It was such a lovely experience to write into a poem, and to freeze into a moment. 👌🏽👏🏽♥️🤗
I always overthink these things too. Loved your poem!
very beautiful poem full of deep emotions
It is wonderful, it embodies the deep simplicity of emotions ✨
