By My Dad

Today I wanna share Something written by my dad:

Come, let me tell you
I love you- is the way
I desired to impress
upon the girl
whom I thought
I was looking for.

She stopped, gave a smile
And walked away-
I wondered what that
smile was for
And followed her
quite few steps
only to discover
That I was too gentle
to be in love

I could not
possibly hurt my own
feelings
And come back
fearing rejection.
